Sometime in October, I stopped taking Yaz birth controlControl Control rx for a whole month because it was too much money. I went for a month to see if things would be any different. After noticing my acne was coming back and my periods were heavier, I decided to go back on it (my mom offered to pay for it. Go mom!).
Since November, I've been taking it. I had my period only once. Before my newest pack, I neglected to take it for a whole week. Once I remembered, I panicked and took all of the pills I missed at once (I probably shouldn't have done that).
In December, about a week and a half after that, I almost had intercourseCauses of painful intercourse Sexual intercourse - painful with protection (we never finished. I was way too tight and it hurt a lot). Ever since then, I haven't had my period yet. I've been taking my bc everyday or whenever I remember it. I'm almost at the end of my current pack.
I have looked up all of the pregnancy symptoms and I haven't had any. The only thing I have are food cravings, but I get them ALL the time, no matter what! Weird, I know.
you are NEVER supposed to take a whole weeks worth of pills at once! thats 7 pills
you messed up your pills. you mess up your body. you mess up your periods.
if the last thing you need to be is pregnant you should have used condomsCondoms Female condoms being that you cannot take your pills correctly and neglected to read your instructions prior to taking 7 pills at once.
birth controlsControl Control rx not 100%
missing pills lessens the effectivness of birth control
you should always use condoms
NEVER take 7 pills at onec.
you got your period. your not pregnant
tell your mom to get you another type of birth control one that you wont use incorrectly and you wont have to worry yourself like this for 2 months.
if you think your pregnant take a test! thats the only way to tell. your 18..you know that. good luck in the future but i dont think your pregnant at all. but be careful next time
i see. you said with protection....and you were only talking about december. in the parahgraph before that when you messed up your pills something horrible is where you need to be concerened. not to be concerned with having sex with condoms and birth control.
you didnt say you had sex wtih condoms all the time. you didnt say you were having condoms in nov when you messed up your pills. you only talked about decemeber...we used protection
"In December, about a week and a half after that, I almost had intercourse with protection (we never finished."...so after the incident you got so scarred you THEN started using condoms? so you dont get pregnant...again?
you messed up your pills and did not use condoms during that time (not after)...you run the risk of getting pregnant...but you said you got your period
no no no.... December was the only time I tried to have sex (first time in over a year). We didn't really go through with it, because I was too tight and it hurt me too much.
ok but you messing up your pills the month before lessens the effectiveness.
if you have never had unprotected sex (meaning always used a condom) and your on birth control.......your not pregnant and you have NOTHING to worry about
condoms fail if they break or are the wrong size. neither was the case right...?
if your worried about condoms failing you should not be having sex at least til you understand how condoms work and how effective they are unless broken or too small....oh yeah or expired.
you period should be normal if your taking the pill correctly but not all women who take their bc correctly will always have a regular period
i told you before if you think your pregnant take a test. you need to kno that before you start taking a new pack. but until you figure that out.....dont have sex. but if you do then use a condom. and when you get back on the pill....continue to use a condom every single time
I've brown discharge come out since yesterday. I also notice my breasts are fluctuating. They feel firmer than usual, then return to normal later. However, no other signs of pregnancy have shown up. Is it possible to have pms symptoms and just miss a period?
Funny story, after I got the results, my friend and I decided to play with the guy I was with.... and we made it look like I was actually pregnant and crying and stuff.... he bought it. The look on his face was priceless. XD
But I'm happy to know I'm not pregnant :) I'll just have to wait patiently for my next period.

Like I said, I panicked and didn't think about it beforehand... I really wish I did.
So there's a chance that my body is just trying to adjust again?

I've never had unprotected sex.

If i have been taking the pill regularly since, when should i expect my period to be normal again?

Is this a sign?
