I'm back on this pill after a 2 year break to have a baby.I I started it last month, as advised, the first over my period. I've finished the first Pk, now I'm on day 4 of 7 day break from pill taking, no period has happened. My partner and I have agreed to use condoms also for a couple months to allows the pill to get bk in my system fully as in an extra precaution. All that happened one night when I was about to take it it slipped out hand and rolled under sofa, so I picked a tablet from another Pk for that day and just threw rest that full Pk away. Is it normal to have not had a period yet?
View 1 RepliesContraception :: No Bleeding On Microgynon 30 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?

I have brown patches on my face and my doctor has told me they may be a side effect from the contraceptive pill,but that is just a possibility.I don't want to change my method of contraception but i'm willing to if these brown patches disappear my doctor doesn't seem to know a lot and there's just no way I can afford to see a dermatologist.
View 3 RepliesContraception :: Coming Off Microgynon, Side Effects?
Don't know if this helps but my prior medical history is - under active thyroid (on 125mcg) and I have PCOS.
I was put on microgynon 30 ED over a month ago due to heavy and long lasting periods (they would last nearly the entire year). The microgynon 30 instantly stopped the bleeding which I was so happy about, until the pill free week where I bled stupidly heavy, was going through over 10 'night/super heavy' pads a day, plus bleeding through pj bottoms and sheets . This was accompanied by intense lower abdomen and stomach pain and I soon ended up in hospital as I was so faint and my heart rate got up to 160. Thankfully, physically I was okay 'down there' and the obgyn said it could be hormonal, to take mefenamic acid along with tranexamic acid and she probably thought it was hormonal and to stop the microgynon.
I did and ever since the pain has been horrid. I don't know if this is purely coincidental? But, recently I'm still having the intense back pain, lower abdomen cramps, stomach ache, migraines, hot flashes (I'm only 24!), tight chest pains and vaginal pain (aching and stabbing sensations). Also, my anxiety levels have rocketed to the point of I'm pretty much scared to leave my house. I'm really trying to make it out every day though, so I suppose some part of my rationale is there hidden beneath this mess.
I just don't know what is causing it and I'm going to bed at night thinking I'm going to die haha. That or I am going totally mad and it is all in my little head. I truly hope it is just my hormones are totally out of sync.
Contraception :: No Period After Messing Up Microgynon Pill
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 RepliesContraception :: Taken Two Microgynon Birth Control Pills In One Day
I've had a lot of breakthrough bleeding the last few weeks and am looking into changing my pill. However I'm going to a spa weekend this weekend and read online that to help with break through bleeding you can take two pills on one day and then carry on as normal. I have done this and hope to carry on with my normal pack tomorrow however all day I have felt very nauseous and have had a dodgy tummy constantly on the toilet. Is this because of the extra hormones my body isn't taking it very well? I did take them on an empty stomach stupidly as it was early and I didn't really think. Just worried I'm going to be really ill.

I have recently been give 200 mg of trimethoprim for a water infection and got told by the doctor to use extra precautions because I am taking microgynon 30(the pill).

HELLO Everyone, I received the DEPO shot back on 03/16/2015 and never went back for any additional shots since I started spotting enough to sometimes fill 4 tampons a day(I'm sorry if it is tmi)... lol, so anyways I continued bleeding all until January 15,2016. and just last week on the 02/04/2016 I had a confirmed pregnancy home test and a confirmed pregnancy at my PCP's office, I am going to my OBGYN's office on 02/23, so I have no idea how far along I could be or when I started ovulating again. But it has been almost 1 year since my last DEPO shot. I heard it takes anywhere from 10-18 months to get pregnant after your last DEPO shot. I will let you all know how far along I am after my OB appointment that way we will know how long after DEPO I became pregnant. Has anyone else gotten pregnant while continuously spotting/bleeding?

View 5 RepliesSwitching Between Microgynon And Cerazette
So basically I was on microgynon for about 3 years before switching to cerazette as I told the doctors I had headaches from microgynon as I didn't want to have periods anymore (stupid I know). So now I have been on cerazette for about 6 months my bleeding is extremely light however can come at any time. Sometimes for weeks of light bleeding. I now want to swap back to microgynon as I am going on holiday in November and want to ensure I am not bleeding whilst I am there. I am worried that If I switch back I could potentially bleed for a long period of time. My doctor told me to double up on cerazette but I have had other symptoms such as vaginal dryness which is affecting my sex life. If I switch back to microgynon will I bleed for ages or will it just be for a week, I never had problems with this pills before.

View 1 RepliesMicrogynon ED 30 :: Take It To Control My Periods
I have been on the pill (Microgynon) for a year and a half now. At first I was taking it for contraception, but now I take it to control my periods. I have not experienced any of the side effects that are listed in the leaflets that come with it. I have always been lucky with it and not had any issues!
A couple of weeks ago I decided to take one pack after the other (I've done this before - no issues with it!) as I was going on holiday. Everything is going fine and there is no sign of my period.
I go away again in under two weeks, my period will be due on the Sunday (my first day away) and obviously I don't want this.
I have two options here, leave my last 7 pills and have my period early (again, I am NOT using this pill for contraception at the moment) or take another pack immediately after this pack has finished and miss another period.
(I have not experienced any bleeding whenever I have taken one pack after the other, I have not missed two periods in a row before though).
Microgynon - No Period During My Seven Day Break
I'm hoping to get some info about Microgynon as I didn't have a period during my seven day break. I ALWAYS have a period, is this normal? I have the Mirena coil too so it's very unlikely I'm pregnant but is it still possible to conceive with double contraception (the Microgynon is to help with mood swings and the Merina is my main contraception)
Also I had a super super faint line on a pregnancy test. Some can see it, some can't. When I made the photo darker in black and white it's really obvious. Is that line just the chemicals underneath?
Acne :: Back On Microgynon
I was on microgynon for 2 years. I stopped with it because my relationship had ended and I didn’t have need for birth control pills. I went back on microgynon again to clear acne. I’ve noticed that my face got worse when I stopped with hormones.
View 1 RepliesMicrogynon 30 - Dealying Periods For Holidays Only
I'm going on a holiday in a couple of days time, and My period will clash with the holiday. So I went to the doctor to request for pills to delay my period, and the doctor gave me microgynon 30. After taking the first pill yesterday, my 'period' came. The 'period' is really light, unlike my previous month's periods.
So firstly, is that 'period', my actual period? Or is my actual period going to come a few days later. My actual period is due to come around this period too.
Secondly, if the 'period' isn't my actual period, do I still continue taking the pills to delay my period?
Lastly, if it's my actual period, am I able to stop taking the pill completely and let the period continue? Would it have any effects on my period only?
P/s I know that this pill is a birth control pill, but I'm only taking it to delay my period and not for contraceptive purposes
Microgynon Not To Be Effective With UC If Taking Pentasa
Just wondering if anyone knows if there would be any reason for microgynon not to be effective with UC if taking pentasa. I would like to think not as I am given repeat prescriptions by my GP but have little faith in any doctors and nurses as of recent so thought I should ask.
View 3 RepliesOverdosing On Microgynon 30 - Have Affected My Fertility Somehow?
Basically for the last 2 or 3 years I have skipped most of my periods...I think I maybe have about 4 a year?
I just felt so low and scared of being alone with bfs, that i felt 'I'm due on my period. They will want sex. If i can't give it to them, the will break up with me'.
So I would keep skipping the pill...often though I would forget to take it and come on, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, and to force it stop early would eat about 5 or 6 pills in one go...just to force it to stop. I'm not sure how many times a month this would happen, but I mainly used the pill just to stop having a period, the day I would start one.
I know I have probably ruined my body, and my hormones to say the least are all over the place...i was super hormonal and cry-ey and jealous and just an emotional wreck.
But now I'm worried it might have affected my fertility somehow? & Maybe make it harder for me to conceive in the future. (Which is my biggest fear)
I keep getting random pains in my right ovary kind of area.
I will go to my Dr at some point, but I just wondered if anyone knew of anything.
I am also looking to come off the pill and maybe lay off of anything estrogen related/cut down on eggs too. I think my body needs to cut out estrogen all together for a while. Also, I don't trust myself not to be tempted again, if i'm feeling low about myself. I know it works, so I might do it. I am thinking of going on the implant or coil or something instead, but not sure if I should come off all hormonal based contraceptives, or just change to something else?
