One of them is Ortho-Novum, there is also Genora, Nelova and Norinyl, as well as a few generics. Some common side effects to these birth control tablets may include: nausea, headache and weight gain. Are there any other questions I can answer for you? ## Thank you for responding so quickly,I will discuss this with my Dr.You have been helpful :) ## I called Watson and spoke with the...

Hi, I started the pills backwards, I started on the red pills on the last day of my period. What should I do? Do I continue to take the red pills or do I start the white pills? Also are they going to work? Like will I be protected from getting pregnant? Thank you so much! ## Hello, Rose! How are you? Yes, you should have started with the active pills on the first or second day of your period, that would provide immediate protection from pregnancy, because it would prevent ovulation this month. Unless your doctor says otherwise, you should move on to the active tablets. If you start the active tablets at any time later, you must take them for a full 7 days, before they will become protective against pregnancy, according to the FDA. So, you must use a backup method of protection, until th...

I want to skip my period. Can I skip the white pills on sprintec and start a new pack? ## Yes, unless your doctor has told you not to do so, it is perfectly safe to do this, occasionally. Many women use oral contraceptives to skip having their menstrual cycle on special occasions, or other times when it would just be inconvenient. There are even some on the market now that allow you to only have 3 or 4 menstrual cycles a year. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I don't really think you should do that until talking to a doctor, just to be sure.... My doctor is having me skip the placebo pills for two months then taking it the third month so that I'll have a period every three months. You don't want to mess anything up, so talk to a doctor first. ## I have just star...

The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, acne, weight changes, and mood changes. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I just want to know if it's possible to take famynor as a morning pill after having unprotected intercourse and how many pills must i take? Thank you.

Hi. I have had the implanon since 2012. It is now due to be removed. It was expired on april 28, 2015. Today is september 12 2015 and I still have it. I got my first menstrual since march on sep. 2015. Is the implanon officially done working? Should I be worried? Am I healthy? ## It may still be releasing some hormones in your body, plus once it's expired, it can take a couple months for your body to adjust and for your natural hormones to take back over and things to return to normal. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Implanon as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight gain and PMS-like symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi. I'm a 22 year old female. I've had the implant for 6 years (I had it changed out 3 years ago) and the current ...

I took the plan b pill earlier this month.. under horrible circumstances. I bled the next day for about 5 days. My period wasnt for another 2.5 weeks. Am I suppose to have my regular period? I had unprotected intercourse with my guy a week later. Its the end of the month, no period. I've been nauseous and have little tings in my breast. I feel like I have little cramps but not cramps in my lower abs. It's been a little over a week and a half since I slept with him. Is it possible that I could be pregnant? Or this is just normal. I don't want to jump to conclusions. I don't want to say nothing to him bc he would be so excited and I don't want to give his hopes up. Thanks for the help you guys. I tried to call the doc office and ask the possibilities but they wanted al...

Hello! I'm 33 and have been on Implanon since 2017. Prior to that, I was on Depo Provera for about 10 years. I prefer these forms of birth control since I do not menstruate while I'm on them. I do not have PCOS, nor have I been diagnosed with endometriosis, however my periods were always very painful and I prefer to avoid them for this reason. My doctor(s) have always been amenable. I recently began taking Nature-Throid and Metformin and, after nearly 12 years of not menstruating (beyond the occasional light spotting when my Depo shot was due), started my period. Does anyone know whether thyroid medication or Metformin can impact menstruation in this way? I was on a lower dose of the same thyroid medication for a month previously, but my doctor doubled it recently and now, BAM, ...

Hi, it's my first time using trigestrel pills or any other contraceptive pills for that matter. I started my period on Wednesday, meaning it didn't fall on the red line pill. I thn forgot to take the pill on Wednesday on the day of starting my period; can I start the pill on Thursday and is it necessary to take two pills (for Wednesday & Thursday) ? Is it also necessary to start with the red line although my periods fall on the non-red line. Hope it makes sense. ## Okay, the days printed on the package are just a general guide to try to help women remember to take them each day, but they don't actually have any effect on how the pills work, when you start your period, you should just start the pills that day, and continue on, even if the days of the week don't match ...

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I had jandelle in for 3years. Had it removed in june 2016. Been trying to get pregnant. I have been told it can happen right away. But nothing yet? Is there something wrong with me? ## No, but it can take several months for your body to balance your hormones back out on its own, so that you begin to ovulate, according to the NIH. Other withdrawal effects, according to the U.S. FDA, may include irregular cycles for a few months, headaches, and irritability. Have you had any luck, yet? ## No luck yet. My period are irregular. Every 19 days now ive had it removed. With jadelle it use to be every 28 days. ## Hi, i had jadelle in for 3yrs and i removed it a year ago but i still can't conceive yet.

Plz help me to know what is their use is? ## Hi K Raja, I did some reading on this site and it appears that MP Forte is used either as an oral contraceptive, or as a drug to terminate a pregnancy. In either case, the intention appears to avoid being pregnant. I hope this information helps. You should also check the page on MP Forte Topics. ## ask her you should trust your daughter and she should trust you

Have been struggling badly with GAD and my doctor has just prescribed me a 0.5mg dose a day. I'm just worried it is going to affect me at work and make me pick up weight. My previous contraceptive aided in my weight gain and I cannot afford to pick up more. It will only make me feel worse. I basically just want to know if it will be okay to take for a while until I feel better? ## Hello, Sarah! How are you? This medication is listed as containing the active ingredient Alprazolam, which is a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. However, no it doesn't usually cause weight gain. But it does carry the risk of being habit forming and the FDA lists that it could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is...

Hi, Is it safe to take Althea pills while I'm drinking Lipton tea at the same time Im eating only vegetables? Thank you. ## Yes, neither tea, nor vegetables are known to affect oral contraceptives. The NIH lists the typical side effects of them as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, spotting, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms. However, if you are following a vegan diet, please make sure that you do eat some other foods, such as nuts, to make sure you get enough protein.

Has anyone had the jadelle implant and had bad side effects? I got it done a weeks ago and have started light bleeding over the last few days and it wont go away as well as my skin breaking out. ## These are actually some of the normal side effects for any hormonal method of contraception. It can continue for several months, even the breakthrough bleeding. Weren't you warned about such side effects, when you were discussing having the procedure? You may also experience weight gain, hair loss, anxiety and dizziness.
