A year after you've stopped the first time is untrue. You should start back up in a month, or until those pills that you haven't used recently are done.
Eating does not effect your birth control.
yes.
Depends. If you just got your birth control and you have never had it before.. What you do is take it the Sunday after your period. For example. You started on a Monday. You ended on a Thursday. You take your birth control that Sunday. If you have taken birth control before.. Yes, you take it. Whether you are on or off.
No. that should have no bearing on the situation at all.
There are no known drug interactions between nicotine gum and the birth control pill.
To change from the birth control pill to NuvaRing, insert the ring during the placebo week or any time before. You will have immediate protection as long as you inserted the ring on or before the day you would have started your next pack of birth control pills.
usually if you take the birth control for a week straight without missing any you will be protected. even if you use birth control it isn't 100% effective, so you should use condoms to be safe.
Birth control works by preventing pregnancy. If you are already pregnant, birth control is of no use.
no, because birth control (in any method: pills, ring, patch, shot, implant) is meant to CONTROL birth BEFORE it happens. they are useless after you're already pregnant.
Yes you can. That is how most people get pregnant when they are on birth control. You should always use a second birth control method, like condoms, at all times any way
No, you should not be pregnant when taking birth control. Birth control is meant to lower the risk of pregnancy.
It should be the same amount of time as when NOT on birth control.
