I started my period in April, but I wasn't on the brown pill yet. and now I haven't had a period for the month of may. I have no symptoms of pregnancy. I kept holding my urine in for a while now my bladder hurts. maybe that caused my cycle not to come? idk. and I'm taking lo loestrine FE. ## Have you contacted your doctor? Why are you holding your urine in? That's never really a good idea, because it can cause various problems, such as urinary tract infections. It can be normal to skip your menstrual cycle, when you are new to taking oral contraceptives, due to your body adjusting to the hormones, but you should talk to your doctor to be certain.

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and have thrush. My doctor gave me canex v to use. However when I got home the leaflet with the dasage and directions were not in the package. How often do I have to insert the cream and for how long? Once a day at night? Also is this safe to use during pregnancy? ## Hi... each time after I have urinated I experience vaginal pains as if something needs to be expelled. I would like to know if taking Canex V could help? ## Hello, Shwele! How are you? If it is occurring during, or after urination, then you may have a bladder infection, or a urinary tract infection, which would require an antibiotic, so no Canex V would not help with that. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects of antibiotics as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin ...
