How do you skip your period while taking the birth control pill Triphasil 28 and is it okay to do so with that type of bc pill?

You can, but doing so with the triphasic pills -- the kinds with three different colors/doses of active pills -- has a higher risk of breakthrough bleeding. Talk with your health care provider about options if you want to take pills continuously.

Can you stop being pregnant with birth control?

No. Birth control is intended to prevent pregnancy only. Birth control does not stop an existing pregnancy. It is not safe to take birth control while you are pregnant.

Can you leave the same birth control patch on for 2 weeks and what will happen if you do?

it is unwise to do that. The patch only has enough hormones to protect you from pregnancy for 7 days, 8 days TOPS, so if you leave it on for 2 weeks you are not protected from pregnancy during the second week. Plus it will probably fall off during the second week as it is not designed with enough "glue" to remain on the body for longer than a week.

Can you get pregnant even though you have no periods regulary I'm anorexic and have not had a period in months. I had sex with no condom and he ejaculated in me. What are the chances of pregnancy?

Some girls are anorexic and their body fat % is low enough that their body"tells"the organs that are unnecesary for survival to shut down-hence no periods. That I think is called ammorea. Girls who aren't anorexic whohave very low fat %(less than 13% for women) can miss periods as well.I would think that if your body shut down your reproductive organs due to your not having enough necessary fat around your reproductive organs to work properly, that you can't get pregnant. Nothings to tell for sure though.I would think your chances are low.

Could your stomach swell if you stop taking your birth control pills?

It wouldn't be your stomach swelling, but your uterus. You could be pregnant if you've stopped taking birth control pills and you've had unprotected sex.

Is it safe to drink pee after boil it?

Pee is mostly water but it does contain disolved salts which the body needs to dispose of. You can drink pee; people trapped in caves etc have avoided dying of thirst by drinking their own urine and other people do it for "fun." As pee is essentially sterile there is no need to boil it to kill germs. Boiling it would remove some of the water therefore making it more concentrated and potentially more harmful.

How much does a typical CAT vasectomy cost My wife and I have Three kittens-2 females and one male. I want them to live normal lives wout being neutered or spayed.Do any health probs come w vasec?

"...I want them to live normal lives wout being neutered or spayed..." - What do you think a vasectomy is ! A vasectomy involves either cutting and tying of the tubes leading from the testes or complete removal of the testes themselves - either way your cat will have been neutered !

How does Apri birth control work?

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel contains a combination of female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). This medication also causes changes in your cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.

How should you control your sexual urges?

By reading religious books.

Another reply: Why bother? You may want to restrict yourself to having sex with your husband or wife, but to go beyond that; well, I don't see the point.

Another reply: If this question means how to get rid of sexual urges, there are some things that can be tried, but nothing -- not even the most extreme 'remedies' -- assure 100% elimination of urges/desires.

If the goal is to avoid a particular sexual desire or urge (such as, say, a sexual fantasy that, if carried out in real life, would be harmful and/or abusive), one can try to focus on other sexual desires that are not harmful or abusive.

If the goal is to reduce or attempt to eliminate all sexual desires or urges, one can try some sort of hormonal reduction remedy; this should ONLY be attempted with the consultation and guidance of a medical professional. In extreme cases, there are pharmaceutical remedies that serve as chemical castration (I believe, but am not certain, similar remedies are available to women). In men, the effect in terms of both hormones and sexual capacity are the same as an actual surgical castration; the sexual organs are not permanently harmed but are effectively shut off (no sperm will be produced or released; similarly, testosterone is not produced nor released).

In the most extreme remedy to sexual desires or urges, some people seek sexual sterilization, called castration when performed on a man. Sexual organs are surgically removed. Sexual organs can be transplanted and be fully functional (testicles transplanted from a man to another person can continue producing sperm, with the genetic code of the man they originally belonged to), but otherwise such surgeries are permanent. Men and women seek sexual sterilization surgery for a variety of reasons, not just because of sexual predator criminal convictions nor even feelings of guilt for having taboo sexual fantasies. Sexual sterilization does have side effects that must be dealt with, including depression and reduced metabolism; to stay healthy, persons who have undergone sexual sterilization will need to combat depression and have a robust exercise regiment. Women will no longer menstruate and may experience menopausal and other effects. It can be difficult to find a trustworthy medical professional willing to discuss and consider going through performing a sexual sterilization surgery.

It is important to note, however, that even sexual sterilization surgery may not fully eliminate all sexual desires.

What happens if you take expired birth control pills Excessively like three or four?

If they are expired by a few months or weeks then they will probably mess up your cycle for the next month.

What is the best contraceptive?

The best birth control is ABSTINENCE, as taught in sex ed. Nothing is 100%. Condoms are 98% safe as is birth control. Although, I am part of that 2 percent who got pregnant whilst on the pill (Never take YAZ). If you wanna increase your chances of safety use them both if not a condom always worked for me until I made the switch.

What is the cheapest form of birth control?

I'm not exactly sure... but i think the condom.

Abstinence is by far the cheapest (both short and long term), safest and has zero failure rate.

What happens if you lost your birth control pills and had to start a different brand?

Nothing. It might be from a different brand but the pill is working for the same purpose.
