» kittlesworth - Re: missing a pill afterwards

I just recently stopped taking an antidepressent and had serious withdrawals. During that week I realized that I forgot to take my new package of Marvelon and I remembered on the 3rd day in the evening. So I only took 1 and basically started my package then. I've been having sex almost every single day before I remembered that I had forgotten, and not b/c I did it on purpose, cuz I wouldn't, I just completely forgot b/c my mind was focussing on getting off my anti-depressent. I've been on the pill of 4 years, and have been a day late and stuff like that but never 3 days. You think I should take a pregnancy test? I have really no one else to talk to, my bf of almost 4 years, doesn't really care what happens, b/c he'll be there no matter what, but what are some really early signs of being pregnant, if there are any?

» Passions - Is it ok ????

I'm going on vacation and I was wondering if it is ok to take 2 packs of the pill in a row without taking a break in between? I don't want to have my period while I am away but I need to know if doing this will still protect me from getting pregnant and if its safe or not.

» Momma909 - whats this mean?

I've been on the pill for about 6 months, and i just started to get really light bleeding. it's been happening for about a week and im not supposed to get my period for about 4 more days. lately the bleeding has been heavier, but its on and off. Its not heavy, it's like first day menstration, so not heavy at all. does anyone know what this is?

» kimigirl - missed last pill

I'm on Marvelon 28 and missed the last pill (Friday) before the placebo pills. Got my period on the Monday and had sex on Thursday. I only realised that I missed the pill when I was starting the new pack. I took the missed Friday pill right away (starting a day early). Was I still protected on that Thursday during the pill-free time?

» oap101 - Weight Gaim

When i started birth control pills i started with levlen 28 I weighed 120 pounds.....I have always stayed around the same weight never over 120 pounds. After i started taking Levlen 28 I noticed a significant weight gain. I wasn't eating more that usual. After a year and a half of using Levlen 28 I gained 40 pounds and asked to change pills. Im now on Alesse...I have not noticed any difference. I dont know why I gained so much weight
