How long does it take for nur isterate wear off because i would really like to become pregnant soon. I have been using the injection since May 2011 to Nov 2011. should i take pills instead so that my cycle can return faster or what? i desperately need advise on this regard because i want to have a baby. ## Have you consulted your doctor? From the time you stop the injections, you should probably allow a few months for your body to return to normal, before you try to become pregnant. It will greatly help your chances of getting pregnant and of carry a healthy baby to term. ## I've been using nur isterate for 3 years then stoped using it few months ago about for 4 months then went for another injection 2 months back, now i want to fall pregnant but i've been expiriencing some vagi...

My implant is about to expired on october 8th. Is it normal to have yellow discharge? ## Hello, Jesse! How are you? You may have developed vaginitis, which the FDA lists as being a possible side effect, you may also experience spotting, irritability, and headache. It would be best to have it check out to be sure. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello Jesse, It is not normal to have any discharge from Esperal as long as you haven't consumed alcohol.

I found a thick round white pill with a six petal flower on the front and nothing on the back. I keep finding them randomly through the house, wondering if it's something I should worry about? ## Hello Sara, Unfortunately I wasn't able to find anything that matches your description, the closes I found was a flower with 4 petals. I was trying to find something that may be related to menstrual cycles as it sounds like a more feminine product, but it also does sound close enough to some known illegal drug imprints to warrant concern. This pill is definitely not a prescription medicine and really sounds like one of the following three options to me, an illegal substance, a candy of some sort or an over the counter medicine targeting women. If you really need to identify the pill the...

I use nur isterate since 2010. Lately I have some menopause simptoms. I am 43. What else can I use as contraception? Should I be without any contraceptive ## The U.S. FDA does not recommend hormonal contraceptives for anyone older than 40, due to the increased risk of some types of cancer. Other side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms. There are other contraceptives you can use, such as condoms, or spermicides. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I've been on nur - isterate for 26 years. I am 46 years old and started spotting the last 4 years on and off. I would like to know if being in menopause or perimenopause will affect how the contraceptive works.

Im using oralcon contraceptive pills. im gaining weight... what can help me not to gain? ## Hi, Boikhutso! Sorry about the problem that you're having. However, there really isn't going to be much you can do about the weight change, as long as you're taking the Oralcon. It contains a synthetic estrogen and those very commonly cause women to gain weight. If you feel that you're gaining to much on this one, you may wish to talk to your doctor about trying a different one. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Even if you join gym. You cant get back to your weight before taking the pills. ## hi I slept with my boyfriend without a condom and was on my period so after 2 days of sleeping with him I started using oralcon. ..will they be affective or I am just waisting my ti...

I am using oralcon contraception, but since the beginning of April i haven't seen my period. Is it possible to get pregnant while on this? ## All oral contraceptives carry a slight risk of still getting pregnant. I believe it could be a 1-10% estimated possibility depending on the brand; but in my opinion that merits reason enough to use another form of protection. Irregular periods however, are a general side effect of these types of medications; so it's not always something to be overly concerned about. This may simply be due to a fluctuation in your hormones. To make using oral contraceptives as safe and reliable as possible, you should understand how and when to take them and what side effects may be expected. A paper with information for the patient should've been given...

Hi. I've been using oralcon, the white pills for just 21 days as I was told I used them because I was bleeding for a month and the bleeding did stop but now that I'm done drinking them the bleeding is back. Is it going to be normal? I'm really worried. ## How long did the bleeding continue this time? Have you tried keeping track? Some women do stop having periods while taking contraceptives, according to FDA reports. Other side effects may possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache. How long have you been off them, now? Are you on any other medications? ## The bleeding became normal seven days later and now it's been about a month without using them. I'm off medication and I want my periods to go back to normal. ## I've been using oralcon for a month now but ...

Does Angeliq cause weight gain? ## Hello, Charley! How are you? Almost all hormone risk causing weight gain, that's just a hazard with trying to adjust the natural levels of them in the body. It doesn't happen to everyone that takes them, but yes, it is a risk. You may also experience nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello l have been on Angelique for so many years, they cannot get stock any where, one good thing the pharmacy said that l should not on Angelique for so many years, l should be off it, one good thing they dont have stock to my benefit if that's the case, the only other thing would l gain weight if l stop !@ thanks

Hi... I am on the Pearl and have spotting now and then.. I have developed yeast infection symptoms, heavy discharge and odor.... Can I still use the triben-v??? ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? Rather than a yeast infection, those symptoms actually point more to a bacterial vaginal infection, a yeast infection does not usually cause an odor. So yes, you should take this medication, if your doctor has instructed you to do so. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

People told me that for any brand of birth control pills if all tablets in a blister of 21 tablets have the same color, they are all the same (i.e. contain the same amount of different types of ingredients). Is this always true? (I am asking because many people think that you have to take the tablets in a blister in the order indicated by the arrows on the blister but if they are all the same it doesn't matter as long as you take one tablet every day when you are supposed to take an active tablet). The thing is, not every birth control pill says explicitly that it is monophasic but they have all the tablets of the same color and packages with arrows on them. ## If the pills in a pack of oral contraceptives are different in the amount of hormones, then that is specified on the packag...

I am taking Harmonet birth control pills by Pfizer. A blister of Harmonet pills consists of 21 pills which all have white color and look the same. Are they actually all the same (contain the same amount of hormones in each pill), i.e. is Harmonet a monophasic birth control pill? ## From what I've been able to find, yes, they are monophasic, it is the sudden stop of not adding any hormones that fourth week that induces a period. The FDA lists the typical side effects of most oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes, changes in appetite, and mood changes. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks a lot! Can you point me to a source which says they are monophasic? Honestly everywhere I searched on the internet they never mention the ...
