Hello! I'm a girl and i love to be here:D

[Ringo.]

Hi!

I've been taking birth control pills since last September. For the first few months, my period was probably the same flow as it was before I took the pill. It was kind of light on the first day, heavy during the next few and then light the last couple days. The whole thing lasted around five days.

In January, my period was really light and it only lasted three days. I didn't really notice. Then in February, my period was also really light and lasted three days. Is this normal? I've heard of BCP's making you have lighter and shorter periods, could it be that my body was still adjusting and NOW the BCP is working to make shorter periods? o___o

Though all this time, my period arrived on the exact same day. But January/February, it arrived at a different time cause I guess I switched the time that I eat the pill. o_o

I'm just wondering why the flow and duration suddenly changed like that.

im taking 'Diane' (bc) and its suppose to help my acne, too. how long does it take to see improvements (average)?

im taking Midane bcp which is the cheaper version of Diane i think. my gyno told me that it would take about 3 months to see improvements of acne.
its been 2 1/2 months now and i dont see any changes on my skin. but my boobs grew a bit lol ^^

i knew there were pills that also helped acne, but does that mean that it's also more expensive? i'm just taking trinessa which is the cheaper version of ortho and i get it at planned parenthood for like $25. how much are you guys? i want to take BC pills that make my acne less. sooooo jealous of you girls.

My boyfriend came in me for the first time. Shortly after, I started feeling cramp like pain in my lower abdomen, mild ones like before I get my period. Anyone else experience this?

[pandybearr]

Is it normal if my period goes really light?
I mean like my previous ones are pretty mod/heavy
but this time is like really light o_O
and the odor is quite strong
Is it being irregular? I mean like I only got it like 2 years ago, but it was pretty normal ==

[flyxme.]

so the other day i missed taking my BC pill by like 6 hours b/c i went out and forgot to take it with me. how bad is that? me and my bf had sex on the same day and he didnt pull out. is that really risky?

if you're really paranoid about it or w/e
go get tested just in case...
&btw pull outs are useless, you can still get pregnant

hmm well mine is 20€ for 3 packs. which is about 27 USD
the price is pretty okay. the pills i took before Midane were a whole lot cheaper though. they were only about 11 USD for 3 packs ^^ but those were only for birth control. no other use.

My boyfriend came in me for the first time. Shortly after, I started feeling cramp like pain in my lower abdomen, mild ones like before I get my period. Anyone else experience this?

this has never happened to me before. are you sure its because he released into you? it may be caused by something else.

I never experienced that before. Are you sure you didn't do something to provoke it?

Eh well it's gone now, but I tried searching it on google, and asked just in case it's happened to anyone.
I'm thinking it might've been either he was pushing up against my cervix or I didn't have an orgasm and we were going at it pretty long - everything kind of swells a bit during sex and when there's no orgasm after long arousal it can take a while for it to come down causing discomfort but he came in me, and ejaculate has something in it that triggers uterine contractions (increases the chance of the sperm to meet with the egg) which can emphasize that. But thanks for reading!

hi, 2 days ago a small blister type thing appeared in my mouth but i thought nothing of it
it kinda disappeared yesterday but has reappeared today and is quite big
tried googling it, its not a canker sore or coldsores i dont think
its kind of like a clear blister with a red ring around it and only hurts if i press on it or whatever
any ideas as to what it is? and how to get rid of it?

[chineseduckling]

^ im not sure what it is....but i would say just wait it out a little bit and see if it gets better.

seems to me that time should heal it.

Are you eating healthy? If not, it could trigger that to form. I got one of those before.

this is so embarassing but

when a guy comes in your... is there a certain angle or postition me has to come in at?

[imbored]

I'm having irregular periods, so I am planning on going to a doctor to get prescription for birth control. IS there a specific kind of doctor i have to go to, or can i just go to any doctor such as a family doctor?

[xiaochingu.]

so i have a question, is it recommended to take BCP only to avoid periods? and how old was everyone when they started taking it? and is there a recommended age when to start? Currently I'm 14 turning 15 this year.... is that too early to start?
i'm not sexually active nor am i planning to be but my periods are really bothering me and i was planning to join sports so wearing a pad would be inconvient (and im horribly afraid of tampons .__.)

any advice >.<?

Family doctor should be able to prescribe it.
Ask your doctor I guess, I'm not sure because I go to a Gynecologist. You should go to a Gyno because they are the experts.

Well imo, it's not good to use BC pills to avoid periods, the blood has to come out some time
If it's only occasionally, it should be fine. Like when you're going for a vacation and don't want to be bothered by it.

Maybe you should try the BC pills that shortens the period, such as Loestrin24, they say the pills will make your period lasted for less than 3 days.

Discuss it with your doctor.


About the age, I think you've to be at least 15-16 y.o.

I got this info from a BC pills site.

Is it true that ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN is clinically proven to treat acne and maintain clearer skin?
Yes. ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN is clinically proven to treat acne and maintain clearer skin. So, if you are at least 15 years old, desire contraception, have no medical reasons not to use the Pill, have menstrual periods, and do not improve on topical anti-acne medications, then ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN may be right for you.

I don't think it really matter, haha. I might suggest you not being on top because it's going to drip like crazy when he takes it out.

yes, it's normal that your period is irregular & there are lots of factors that can affect it.
