Contraception :: No Period? Late Period? Taking Pill Back To Back
I have been taking "Femodette" since around beginning of June 2015 and been taking it back to back once because i was on vacation. I only took 2 packs of femodette. After i finished the second one towards the end of july, i completely stopped taking birth control. I only took it because i'm in a long distance relationship and i was spending some time with my boyfriend so i thought might as well get protected during this time (and i always do this when we get a chance to be together, which is twice a year). We never use condoms but we also never had any problems (he never finished inside). I always took my pills on time, never missed a pill. My period would always be late when i stop taking the birth control and it always gets me worried and stressed out that i could be pregnant. But i was starting to think its because of the stress and maybe because i always travel during that time. Now, this time same thing is happening again. Today, 13th August and still no period even though i stopped taking the pill for weeks and weeks. I did have some bleeding once shortly after finishing the pill. It was more than spotting because i had to wear a pad and it was a bit dark redish and then turned lighter to be brown as the days went by but wasn't a real period flow. I'm not very worried if i could be pregnant right now because i have no symptoms at all except that my period hasnt come yet. I do have mild cramps from time to time and bloating but its gone now. I'm just wondering if there is a chance i could be pregnant or is it because of taking the pill back to back and traveling + stress?

I had an old packet of the pill left with about 8 days pills remaining. I took one, not on the first day of my period, but about 2 weeks from the usual period days. My bf and I had intercourse and he ejaculated inside me. I continued with the remainder of the pack as required but forgot to take one pill about 4 days later, I took that pill on the Thursday mornings and took the usual Thursday pill on Thursday night, then Friday pill on Friday morning..I continued with the pack but forgot to take the Monday pill and took Tuesday on Tuesday and Wednesday on Wednesday... I should have had my period today and it feels like there should be a period but I've not had my period! Do you think I could be pregnant or have I just messed up my system?! Really don't want a baby just yet!! Boobs aren't sore like usually are when I'm premenstrual but tummy feels warm sometimes throughout today... I've now got 3 new packets of the pill which I should take on Thursday following a 7 day break...
View 2 RepliesLate Period After Taking The Morning After Pill?
My last period was between 9-13th May. On 19th May, the condom broke. Within 12-15 hours of the sex I took the morning after pill. Then on maybe the 27th May I had some light bleeding for around 3/4 days.
I expected my period to be here around the same time as last month, however nothing as of yet. My periods are often irregular, but I'm just a bit paranoid and concerned now. I always tend to get tender breasts before my period comes which I am experiencing now.
I am stressing a lot about it, which I know can delay periods as it is, but also I was stressing about finishing university. Now also this weekend I have had a throat infection.
I am really nervous to take a test as I do not know what to do if it is positive. Has this happened anyone else? Should I expect it to come soon?

View 1 RepliesPeriod Is 12 Days Late, Stopped Taking The Pill
I have been on the pill for a year and I stopped taking it just over a month ago. I was having sex just up until I stopped taking it (long distance relationship). Just after I stopped taking it I had a light period but since then I haven't got a period again and it's currently 12 days late. I had some PMS right before I was supposed to get my period but it never came. I'm scared that I could be pregnant because I know a girl who didn't know she was pregnant until it was too late because she was still getting her period! Do you think I could be pregnant or that my period is just irregular (my period was regular before I took the pill).
View 2 RepliesSpotting/period Few Days After Taking Pill Half Hour Late?
So I have a question about taking the pill half an hour late. Is it normal to get anywhere from spotting to your actual period a few days after taking the pill half an hour late?
I'm 20 and have been on the pill since 14. I've tried YAZ (the best by far but not covered by health care) and a few others, currently on the generic brand of Levlen Ed.
Only recently, say the last 1 - 2 years I have noticed that my body is working almost like clockwork when it comes to taking the pill. If I take it anywhere from even just 15min late (though typically occurs from half an hour late), I will undoubtedly get spotting or even my period a few days later.
I cannot find anyone on internet forums who experiences the same. A couple of hours maybe but not to this extent. Most women say they can take theirs hours apart with no effect.
My question is, is this normal and why has it only been the last few years? My body used to work just fine with the pill.

I started taking this when I was 14 and had a regular bleed that began on the same day. However I stopped taking it at the beginning of the year. I then carried on at the start of the month for a new partner. I haven't been taking it at the same time everyday due to being out, its ranged from 8pm-12am. We have only had sex without a condom a few times whilst I've been on the pill but im now 3 days into my 7 day break and I have not bled yet. Could I be pregnant? And how do I approach my partner?

Contraception :: Pill Causing Blocked Nose
i've been taking the contraceptive pill for 3 months and about a week after starting, I found my nose was getting blocked. It's still like this. I've been to see my nurse who says it's unlikely that the pill is causing this, though looking at the NHS website it states that the pill does cause this. Assuming this is the cause, is swapping to a different pill likely to make any difference or do I just need to live with it while I take the pill? And is it even safe to continue with this Pill if it's causing my nose to swell up like this?

View 2 RepliesContraception :: Started Getting Periods On Cerazette Pill - Is It Normal?
I've been on Cerazette (mini - pill) for 2 years and since I started my periods stopped which was great and what my doctor told me would probably happen. However 3 months ago my periods have seem to have come back the same time each month as if I'm not on the pill anymore. The only thing that I can think of that's caused this is that i've change the time i'm taking my pill from about 9am to 6pm could this be why? I thought after my first period I might just need to settle back but maybe not!
Just wondered if anyone can help me is this normal? I've read that irregular bleeding can occur but this seems to be pretty regularly, it's really annoying!
I'm thinking of changing to the implant will this be a better option? or as it's the same kind of hormone will my periods still carry on?

View 2 RepliesContraception :: Chances Of Pregnancy If I Forget My Pill For 15 Hours?
I've been on birth control pill (Yasminelle to be exact) for more than a year. A few days ago I started a new pack. I took the first pill like normal. The same day I had sex with someone, without a condom but he didn't ejaculate. The next day I forgot to take my pill for a little longer than 12 hours and I took it as soon as I remembered and had access to it. The following day I took the pill at the normal time.
Reading the instructions for the pill, about forgetting to take it for longer than 12 hours during the first week of the new pack, it said that if there was sexual intercourse a few days before forgetting to take the pill, there's still a chance of pregnancy. I suppose that is, if there is ejaculation, which in my case, didn't happen. I know I probably shouldn't worry but I still wanted a second opinion.
Contraception :: Spotting Within A Week Of The Birth Control Pill
I have been taking birth control pills for about 6 years now, on and off. I usually take it every month, however for the last month I did not take the pills. My periods did not come after the month ended but it came after about two months for itself. I started taking the pills after my periods finished and into about a week of the pills, I began spotting, this never happened before. I have protected sex with my bf, so I highly doubt I am pregnant, but I still wanted to find out what could be the causes of my irregular spotting?
View 1 RepliesLate Second Period After Morning After Pill
About 1 1/2 months ago, the condom broke while having sex (around June 1). I took the morning after pill within 29 hours. I got my regular on-time period just a few days later (June 3). My period is usually around the same time every month. However, it is now July 9th and there are absolutely no signs of an upcoming period. Since I already had a period, I don't THINK I'm pregnant but just find it weird that my 2nd period is late...its never happened before.
