I am sorry about the death in your family. You should always let your doc know about any changes that could affect your health. I pretty sure he will tell u to wait until the Sunday after your next period. Don't start now unless he tells you to, they might mess up your cycle. your pills will be fine for next month, there should be an expiration date on the packaging somewhere.

you have to go to the doctor for the prescription, but most pharmacies do not carry the pill. You also need to take it with in a certain amount of time after having intercourse. The pill prevents a fertilized egg from embedding into the walls of the uterus. Its cheaper and safer to use a condom or be on birth control pills.

The best birth control around is the vascetomy for the man.  It really works, takes the burden off the woamn and puts it where it belongs, on the man.

It is about time.  For so long, women have had to bear all the responsibility about being protected against the possibility of getting pregnant whether it be having the condom, or some other form of birth control.  Now, men can be bothered with the every day task of remembering to take "the pill".  Too bad they don't have a menstrual cycle.

the pill is very unhealthy to woman...stop taking it...if you don't want to get pregnant because you are not married don't have sex...if you are married consider natural family planning...it will help you to discover when your body is able to conceive and when it can't..(your body gives you signs)....stop hurting your body because you don't want to give birth to a beautiful baby...its not right to the child that you could have and its not right to you

here's the deal with the pill. you technically have about a three day window to take it before the hormones leave your system, but this is a VERY wide window. you should be taking it within the same hour every day, but if it like you say was only a three hour window, you will be fine. if you are still worried, use a condom and go back to taking your pill AT THE ORIGINAL TIME you were taking it before the slip up:) and call your gyno or local planned parenthood if you need to ask stuff like this, they're awesome at answering every kind of question;)

Birth control, also called contraception, is any method used to prevent pregnancy. It allows you to choose whether or when to have a child.

You need to use birth control.

In general, birth control is meant to prevent ovulation.  It tells your body that you are pregnant, thus you don't ovulate (makes sense you can't get pregnant when you are already pregnant).  \n\nBut, there is something called emergency contraception or "Plan B" it is called.  These are taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex.  In this case there is some controversy over whether the hormones prevent fertilization of the egg by the sperm or not.  The generally accepted notion is that the emergency contraception helps prevent implantation of any fertilized eggs.

The pill in only 99 percent effective so there is always a very slim chance, don't take antibiotics ant he same time, that's how I fell pregnant with my first, as the counteract the effects of the pill.\n\nHowever, if you are taking the pill the way the doctor or nurse told you to and haven't missed and then you should be fine, the pill is the best contraceptive in my opinion.

If you have sex, always have protected sex. You can still get pregnant on the pill and you never know where your partner has been.

There are some very serious side effects from birth control pills that your doctor will not tell you.\n\nThese side effects range from things as big as your libido to as small as your contact lenses.\n\nYou need to research very carefully before taking them so that you can make a truly informed decision.\n\nhttp://www.unm.edu/~shc1/pill-side-effects.html\nhttp://www.emedicinehealth.com/articles/40786-1.asp\nhttp://www.drugs.com/Triphasil/\n\nand many others

Yes, call Metforin or something simular. Its used by couples trying to get pregnant. If you are not trying to get pregnant, birth control pills are a good treatment.

I used to work in the lab of a biologist who did work in the rainforest somewhere down south.  She had a plant that the locals used for birth control.  They could eat part of this plant and it would act as permanent birth control until they ate another plant, which completely reversed it.  True story.\n\nReally, though, without that thing, I would say abstinence is the best way.

The birth control pill regulates hormones. They might stop the periods or at least make them irregular enough to help you survive through the rest of the year.

I lost like 15 pounds because of the Birth control pill. I know that sounds GREAT but not in my case because now I am too skinny, so right now I'm trying to gain the pounds back. I know most women gain weight instead of losing. I'm going to my GYN to change my pills in two weeks. Enjoy it if is working the way you wanted to!
