Sounds like a yeast infection mixed with a bit of menstrual blood or blood from the irritation of the yeast. Lotrimin and other over the counter medications for yeast can be effective and should stop the itching within 24 hours. Even though the sympotoms stop within 24 hours, you must complete the entire dosing schedule or it will return. Eatting yogurt will promote the return of the right bacteria and help prevent the return of the yeast. If you can't tolerate milk, acidophyllius pills 2 tab three times a day (see label) will work also.
If you've never had your period before there is no way but waiting. If you've had it before the only way to control is it my taking birth control pills.
Your period would probably not come until your 3rd or 4th sugar pill. If you started taking the pills on the Sunday before your period did that period come?
If by spotting, you mean you have started having a light discharge of your period then it is a good sign you are not pregnant. It is important for you to recognize that this discharge may not be your normal menstrual fluid though. If it looks like your regular discharge, and you've been taking your pill correctly, you shouldn't be pregnant. A pregnancy test is an affordable way to pt your mind at ease though. Also, recognize if you are on the sugar pill part of your birth control, which should be inducing your period. As always, consult a doctor for an examination to be completely sure.
Yes it does. It takes a month or two before your cycle becomes normal again. If you had PMS before taking the pill it returns and your period may seem heavy for a time.
Your period will come naturally. Birth control does not help you get your period. Your body decides when you will get your period.
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.
If you want to suppress just the one period you can get specific pills from the doctor, but if you need contraception as well you can start birth control. However you will not be protected from pregnancy for about 3 weeks.
It depends on what birth control you're on. You need to take remove the patch and the nuvaring, but if you're on the pill, have an IUD or implanon, or take the shots, your period will regulate itself.
i am not sure, but you should consider asking your local doctor.
Small possibility. Key signs are if you are having lower back pain, or headaches. Sometimes you may not have a complete period it happens, and usually a discharge happens before and after a period. I would suggest taking a test to be on the safe side if you are not on birthcontrol.
Right on the first day. It will take a month before the pills will be effective.
No, you should always take your birth control pills as scheduled regardless of bleeding. Contact your health care provider if you have pain or unusual vaginal discharge along with the unscheduled bleeding.
