I took an emergency contraceptive pill last Friday and I wasn't suppose to get my period until the 5th or 6th of November. But I had sexual intercourse yesterday and my partner noticed some blood but we didn't mind it that much. This morning I woke up and I was bleeding. I'm not exactly sure but I think I got my period. The whole point is, can it be possible for the contraceptive pill to cause a woman's period to come a week or two sooner?
Tony is correct, if you are in fact breastfeeding you should discuss with your OB/GYN a progestin only pill ( a good example would be NORA-BE TABLET) . If not here are some low dose pills to consider.
I have just gone through a similar situation. I stopped taking Mircette on 6/4. Since then I've had all kinds of stomach cramps, pinches, nausea, REALLY SORE BOOBS, and all other stuff you would expect from PMS or possible pregnancy. AF showed exactly 4 weeks after I took my last pill. My body was getting back to pre-bcp body. Your body is going through that same thing in my opinion.
Is it true that contraceptive pills lessen your cramps and what are the side effects?
i took my last contraceptive pill 2 days ago could i get pregnant if i had sex the day after while waiting fore period
I will be getting married in a month. I wish to know what is the best contraceptive option for me.My spouse isnt comfortable in using condoms. I am 24 and he is 26. We dont wish to have children for atleast 2 years.
So I had unprotected sex about 2 weeks ago and took the Plan B contraceptive therefore I started my period about 2-3 weeks earlier than usual. Towards the end of my period I had sex again and another accident happened. Should I be worried about pregnancy since I had my period earlier than usual? and should I take Plan B again to be safe?
yes of course, i-pill is an emergency contraceptive pill which is consumed to avoid unwanted pregnancy in case of unportected sexual intercourse. so to be sure of avoiding pregnancy you can definitely use i-pill. you are suppose to take i-pill within 72 hrs of intercourse for it to be of any effect.
We were scared that she might get pregnant due to precum. So she took a contraceptive pill (I-pill) within 48 hours. This is the first time she ever took a contraceptive pill. We had sex again a week after and used protection. The next day she started bleeding heavily accompanied by mild abdominal pain. She has had irregular period and we don't know weather this has something to do with sex or she has her period. Moreover she just had her period 3 weeks ago.
s no evidence that lamotrigine decreases the effectiveness of the pill. The interaction is that the estrogen in the pill lowers your lamotrigine levels, which means you'll need a higher dose than you would off the pill. If you're really worried about pregnancy, consider a copper IUD or just use condoms with the birth control.
I am on 200 mg lamotrigine and birth control pills right now.
What is this contraceptive pill you keep taking? Is it a pill you're supposed to take every day, but for some reason you're only taking it when you have sex?
If that's the case, that it's a daily pill but you're only taking it every once in a while, it's not going to keep you from getting pregnant.
I took my first active pill the morning after the active finished and then that evening had unprotected sex but he pulled out before finishing, then the next day I took the emergency contraceptive pill within 24hours and continued taking my pill as per usual. Do you think I have anything to worry about?
ve been told that its 1mg of norethindrone is still pretty androgenic especially for those who already have an imbalance. Would Mircette be an option with desogestrel being less angrogenic? Also, any experience with prescribed HALF tab of OC? (ie. instead of Loestrin 1/20.. use 0.5/10 for hormonal imbalance?) Just concerned about initial breakout.
Just some background... I have not used OC previously.
If you've had unprotected sex and have taken an emergency contraceptive pill within 24 hours of unprotected sex, should you begin taking a birth control pill immediately? What if you haven't started taking the pill yet; should you still wait until you get your next period or will taking it asap help prevent a pregnancy?
Thanks!
ve been on Mircette (a.k.a Kariva). Before I started Mircette I stopped my pills about 3 days before I was supposed to right before I was to start my cycle. Anyway, long story short, with this pill all I've had are bad gas and gas pains, some cramping but other than that I don't feel like I'm on bcp. Well yesterday I was supposed to have my period but when I thought it was here, I had mucus like cm and then some pinkish brownish discharge with it.
you shouldn't be forced to have sex. if you're concerned about getting pregnant before you're married, either dont have sex, or use a condom. also, no contraceptive pill is 100% effective. the most is 99% and even then, multiple people get pregnant while on them. My mother got pregnant with me while she was on the pill. bottom line: if you dont want her to get pregnant before the wedding, use a condom or just dont do it. condom's dont feel much different than the real thing.
I decided to get off BCPs and since, have been feeling awful. I am back on the pill (continuous Mircette), but still do not feel well. I would love to find an endo specialist/surgeon in the Washington DC/Maryland/Virginia area to get the endo excised. I am tired of feeling so awful. I would love to travel to a specialty center, but I have 3 young children and a part-time job. Thank you so much!!
I had a Protective sex after this surgery much after 5 months of the surgery. i stil ve taken a contraceptive pill. S this fine??
i had sex last july 18, my guy didnt used condom at first and then decided to just do handjob. second and third round we already used condom. then the day after i took the first pill of trust Pill. im still not having my menstruation, and its the second last day of the month. I just tried to have PT twice and its both negative. now im worried. Am I pregnant? or its just that my mentrual cycle moved or changed?
i was wondering more on the lines of hormonal changes and damages towards my body rather than how effective it would be as a contraceptive but thankyou for the useful information !
