Birth control question? Please help!?
Question:
Answers:
Keep up with the BC for a couple more months. They say it can take up to 3 months for BC to regulate your hormone levels. Have you gain or lost weight in the past 2 months? or have you been under abnormal stress? Have you been doing more rigorous exercise? All of these things can contribute to missing a period. You should speak to your doctor though, if you're seriously concerned. Nobody at yahoo knows your exact health issue(s), so wait it out or talk to your doctor!
It usually takes a few days for your period to start when you are on the pill. I start taking my placebos on Saturday and I don't usually get my period until Tuesday or Wednesday.
Yes, the cycle can be altered for a short time while the body is trying to get used to being on the medication, but continue to keep an eye on it and then let your doctor evaluate the situation further if you still don't notice a period in another week or so.
Well the first answer is probably right, however, sometimes due to extreme stress, a girl can stop having her period completely, my friend had that and she went to the doctor, so if you don't get it in a couple of days i suggest that you do the same, i mean it is great not having it but it might not be entirely healthy, talk to you doctor is always the best suggestion.
Birth control usually messes up your cycle for the first few months while your body adjust to the hormones. So some skipped or unusually heavy periods are to be expected.
It's normal that your period might be shorter during your off/placebo week. So you might get yours in a day or two. If you don't get it by the end of the week you might want to give your doctor a call just to check in.
Btw, if you've never had intercourse, why did you think you might be pregnant? Hopefully the doctor gave you some literature on sex ed?
That's normal. When I was on birth control pills I used to get my period on the 4th day of the placebo pills.
Why did you tak a pregnancy test and you have never had intercourse?, anyway your body is adjusting to the charge of hormones contained in the pill, so it is natural, you may see this affections for three months, it it is persistant go to your obgyn he will chnage the pill for you.
Good Luck!!;D
