Birth Control

Nope. You can wash out the seminal fluid but not the sperm themselves. Even if you moved at the fasted rate possible for humans you would not be able to remove them before they entered you uterus. They make it through your cervix within seconds of ejaculation and the stuff that you ooze and have left over is just the fluid that they were transported in out of the male's body.

Mercury, but it caused more problems than it solved.

yes anyone can

Sometimes, it depends with each person. Some women's vagina's are so sensitive to alien product such that they get yeast infection or even fungal infection. First you could try to use unflavoured ones and if you do but there is still a reverse reaction, try checking with your gynaecologist other than going for product after product which could result to recurrent infections.

Yes, but if you have been taking the pill like prescribed, you probably aren't pregnant.

make sure you are pregnant before stopping the pill otherwise you will be pregnant pdq

Female condoms are really effective when they are used properly AND they protect against STI's. It takes a little practice to use one properly - read the package instructions carefully and check out the tips below: * Be careful that condoms don't tear when opening the packet - careful of long nails and jewelry. * Condoms should be put in before there is any genital contact or penetration. The female condom can be inserted hours before having sex. If there's a chance you might have sex you could put one in, just to be sure. Female condoms can be used at any stage of your monthly cycle. * Squeeze the small inner ring between your thumb and forefinger Insert the condom into the vagina and push inside as far as you can * Put your finger inside the condom until you can feel the bottom of the inner ring. The larger outer ring will stay outside your vagina * Oil - and water-based lubricants can be used with the female condom and should be used inside the female condom * When sex starts, guide the penis into the outer ring to make sure that it does not go on the side, passing by the condom * After ejaculation you must remove the condom by twisting the outer ring (to keep the semen inside) then gently pull it out * There will still be semen on the penis so keep it away from the vagina * Wrap the condom and dispose of it safely and hygienically (not down the toilet). * Female condoms can only be used once. Condoms offer the best protection from Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and HIV but no method of contraception can provide 100% protection from STIs, HIV or pregnancy.

Some women notice an increased white discharge after starting the birth control pill, without odor, itching or irritation. This is called leukorrhea, and if you find it troublesome, your health care provider may be able to change to a different mix of hormones.

Some cases have shown that some women have had period like symptoms while pregnant

You can start the birth control pill at any time, adn doing so may delay your period, or you might have unscheduled bleeding or spotting. If you start the birth control pill before your next period starts, be sure to use a back up method of birth control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, until you've taken seven pills in a row.

If you miss a whole week of birth control you have 2 choices. 1) To take the pill as soon as you remember (one pill a day) 2) Use condoms during sex and wait till your period is due and when your period arrives, start taking the pill again on day one of your period. If you go with option one you may be a week late for your period because you missed a week or you may be a week early. So dont be alarmed if this happens. But if you go with option two you put yourself at risk of pregnancy.

The NuvaRing is supposed to be used for three weeks, then taken out so that you WILL have a menstrual cycle. You do ovulate every month as long as you're taking the NuvaRing out for the one week, and place a new one in once that week is done. The NuvaRing, if you look at the package insert, is equipped with enough hormones to supply birth control for a full 30 days. If you choose to keep the ring in for four weeks, and put a brand new one in without taking a week-long break, you will not ovulate and will not have a menstrual cycle.

Having said that, it is OK to not have a menstrual cycle every single month. As long as you have 3-4 periods a year, your body will function normally and nothing bad should happen. As with many forms of birth control, there's always risk of "break-through" bleeding, which happens to many women and generally isn't reason for alarm as long as it isn't heavy and for more than a week.

I work in an OB/GYN clinic

Highly unlikely that you are pregnant as the depo shot is one of the best methods of birth control. If you have not had a period, you should ask your doctor but I do know that it is common with depo users.

Well this is a loaded question because, according to doctor's research, you should stop taking birth control pills immediated due to the health hazzards of the estrogen contained in them.

Assuming you are considering the use of double BC after unprotected sex, technically you cannot prevent a pregnancy if conception has already occured. But you can cause a uterus linning to be unfriendly to implantation, and thus cause a very early misscarriage or abortion.

There are some who have redifined conception or pregnancy to be when the fertilized egg or zygote inplants in the uterus lining or endometrium. Thus under this defining pregnancy has not occurred. But a zygote is a zygote and implanted or not genetics separte and unique from the mother and father have been created dispite implantation. You decide if taking extra birth control is an abortion or not... yes... it does work.

No, it's not normal. You should go to the doctor, you may need to get a new kind of pill. And you should use a back up method of birth control in the meantime. You pill may not be working and you could get pregnant. Just went to doctor today and asked very same question. She said that it is not uncommon. She said your system will eventually adjust and there should be nothing to worry about. I asked her if my chances of getting pregnant are higher when this happens. She said no that as long as I take pills every day at or around same time, I am 99% protected regardless and don't need another form of birth control as a backup.

Yes an IUD, (Intrauterine Device) is a very effective contraceptive for some women.

Yes. Many different issues can delay your menstrual cycle such as stress or sickness. However, the most likely reason your period would be two weeks late is because you are pregnant. You should take a pregnancy test, which you can buy in any drug store.

Take a pill from spare pack or take pills as normal and start your pill free week a day early.Make sure you are still only 7 days without taking a pill though!8days+ and things get risky...

I lost 4stone in the first 9 months of having mine in without really trying to, as the copper IUD doesnt contain hormones, it shouldn't actually affect weight.

Yes, if a condom breakes and the sperm gets out into the vagina, you can get pregnant. You can also get pregnant if there's sperm on a finger, and it goes up your vagina.

If you are on regular birth control pills, you will get your period every month. However, it is safe to just skip your placebo pills and continue taking a new pack of pills (active ones) if you want to skip your period for any given month. I've done it a few times when I had to travel and I didn't have any side effects.

You still have periods every month when you are on the pill. You don't actually ovulate and have a period. But you bleed every month.

Taking the [combination] birth control pill stops your menstrual periods, for the entire time you use the pill. So, if you take the pill for 5 years, you don't have menstrual periods for 5 years.

The monthly bleeding episode pill users have is a fake period (withdrawal bleeding). The fake period is a "designer" bleeding. There's no medical/health reason for it; rather it was built-in to make pill use more acceptable to women/politicians/religious leaders of the time. How often you get a fake period depends on the pill regimen you use. For example, on the regular 3 weeks on active pills/1 week on placebo pills, you have a monthly fake period. On a 6 weeks on/1 weeks off, you have a fake period every 6 weeks, etc.

The chances are very low, but not impossible. For most, it usually takes a couple of weeks to approximately 3 months to even ovulate after taking birth control pills therefore, to get pregnant 7 days after is not the norm. However, if concerned, take a test or consult with your doctor.
