Birth Control

Take the pill you've forgotten as soon as possible when you remember you've forgotten. The risk of not being protected anymore is highest when you've forgotten to take the pill in the first 7 days of the strip and the last 7 days of the strip. If you've forgotten a pill about halfway of you're strip it's a little less risky. If you take the pill more than 12 hours after you take it normally, it's not safe anymore. So use a condom for the rest of the month. The morning after pill is also an option. You can keep taking you're pill the way you usually do if you use the morning after pill as well. But the morning after pill isn't meant for regular use, so try to just use a condom for the rest of the month.

Also, if this is not the first time you've forgotten to take you're pill, you might wanna think about using something else like the vaginal ring of injections. That way you don't have to remember everyday.

Spermicide is most effective when used with a barrier method of birth control, like male and female condoms, cervical cap or diaphragm - used correctly spermicide with a condom or other barrier is between 90% and 95% effective.

When used alone, spermicide jelly, foam, sheet or suppository needs to be placed high in the vagina, against the cervix and you must add fresh spermicide each time you have vaginal intercourse - it is 70% to 85% effective in preventing pregnancy.

Each type of spermicide is used in a slightly different way. Be sure to read the instructions that are included in the box.

If you took the birth control pill correctly and consistently during the prior weeks, you're still protected during the pill free week. If you made an error, you may be at risk for pregnancy even while having withdrawal bleeding.

Yes, as long as you start taking the hormone pills when you are supposed to. The sugar pills are just to keep you in the habit and make sure you start the hormone pills on the correct day. If you are stopping taking pills altogether you need not take any sugar pills at all.

True

It affects people differently. It has been known to cause blood clots (which can be fatal) in some women. I personally took Yaz for 2 years before I switched birth control and I was miserable. It made me nauseous almost on a daily basis.

Birth control pills do not normally permanently prevent women from getting pregnant or being fertile, so the answer should be yes, most probably. However, only medical tests can confirm this. If you want to esnure you are fertile, please see your doctor for the appropriate tests.

no

Not really, one extra pill in a cycle or one pill short in a cycle should not make any difference, although I wouldn't suggest making a habit of doing so.

From the functionality perspective, both are better. This is not just another contraceptive sheath but was also designed to fit the female anatomy. Over 20 years now it has been in the market but still male condom is more popular. Overall male condoms have ease of use of male condom. Female condoms are usually made of nitrile sheath as against latex and offers more lubrication.

Low blood pressure is not a known side effect of birth control pills.

No, it's a painkiller with codeine and tylenol. It will not prevent or end a pregnancy.

Wait at least 2-3 weeks until after you had sex to take the pregnancy test. Even then it might not be a high enough level to detect the hormone. Blood tests at the doctor are much quicker.

sperm needs to mature enough to reach the egg to form zygote

it stops the sperm from reaching the egg.

Yes, you have it exactly right! You can insert NuvaRing early. That's your new insertion/removal day.

If you had sex during that first week, you could very easily get pregnant. Those are just sugar/iron pills. Taking the first week immediately won't have much a difference. It takes 1-3 weeks for the pill to be fully effective. If you are already pregnant, that won't change simply because you started taking the pills. The pill has little risk to the fetus. If you suspect you may be pregnant, don't take that first week and find out for sure if you are or are not pregnant. In fact, call your doctor right now and see what you can find out. Good luck :)

Yes, people with ADD tend to have "sluggish times" where they cannot wake up.

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.

The shot is scheduled for exactly 3 months....they give you a 10 day window to go and get it...so if i got the shot on September 10th i would have to go and get the shot between December 5th and 15th that way i am covered between times to get it....

If you want to get pregnant, it makes more sense to stop birth control.

I'm not sure why you would want to do this. But to be protected from pregnancy you need to take all the active pills as directed - then take the inactive pills or toss them out, the only purpose they serve is to remind you to take a pill everyday and when to start your next packet of active pills.
