Birth Control

If you'd like to switch from Depo Provera to the birth control pill, you can start the pill anytime after the 10th week of Depo Provera, up until the last day Depo was due, with no interruption in pregnancy protection. There is no need to wait until the first period after Depo Provera; doing so puts you at risk of pregnancy. If you start later than 15 weeks after the last shot, you should use a backup method of birth control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, until you've taken seven pills correctly.

YES ... you can overdose on anything.

The primary effect of overdosing on The Pill is that because it is a synthetic hormone, your body will react just as if your organs were producing too much of one hormone. The body's hormonal system normally functions as an "inverse" relationship: when one hormone goes up, another hormone goes down. So if you take too much of The Pill in an attempt to overdose, you'll likely end up with too much testosterone or progesterone (most pills inhibit egg implantation with testosterone or progesterone). That means female hormones that the body should produce would be lowered. Therefore, a female who takes more of The Pill in an overdose attempt could end up causing her ovaries to be significantly affected. She could have symptoms of masculinization: hair growth, for example. A male who would take an overdose of The Pill would receive the amounts of female hormones present in The Pill, which would be much higher than the male body should have, so he could have feminization symptoms and could significantly affect his ability to produce healthy sperm.

There is always a chance for a miscarriage when you are pregnant. See the doctor regular for prenatal check ups.

Vastectomies can be reversed, but it isn't 100% effective.

That's certainly possible. If you took three birth control pills because you missed pills, consider taking a pregnancy test now, and repeating in two weeks, and consider another method with a lower risk of forgetting.

Condoms are almost 100% effective against catching the HI virus. Condoms are flimsy things but also strong, and if you use them carefully there is very little chance of them breaking (if you are having anal sex make sure you use plenty of lubrication).

There is no chance of the virus penetrating a condom. Stories about this are completely false.

Condoms and vasectomies are the only reliable types of birth control for men. Any other types of birth control are for women. The withdrawal method is another type for men but is known to be one of the most unreliable when used over many encounters. There is a lot of research money going into a male contraceptive, and one will most likely be found in the next five years. Previous attempts have resulted in drugs that had side effects that reduced a man's desire and were not well received. One promising new method involves stopping the sperm from developing the tail that helps them swim. Also, there is a type of vasectomy that is designed to be reverseable.

No, you are just as likely as if you were never on the pill. For some women it takes a while after they get off the pill, but it possibly could take that long if they weren't ever on the pill. It is reccomended to wait until you have had one regular period off the pill before trying though.

I agree with the last comment. It usually takes about 6 months to fall pregnant off the pill, as your body will still have the pill in your system for about three months. Any drug will stay in your system for up to three months. I will wait for one or two regular periods. Don't be upset if you don't conceive because it can take about 6 months normally.

You have the option of buying Yasmin 28 pills or 21. The 21 pills option simply doesn't have the 7 last sugar pills that are just there for a reminder to take your pill everyday. So if you have the Yasmin 21 tablets and are done with the last pill in your pack, you don't take any pill for 7 days, then start in a new Yasmin 21 pack.

The Whole Church teaches that birth control is wrong altogether. It contradicts (Notice contra- ceptives, contradicting with conception) with the natural cycle and does not respect the gift of sex. Even condoms, even if they are used to prevent HIV are not approved by the Church (Although it is not a sin to use it in moral sex), if they can't even effectively stop sperm, how can it stop HIV which is a virus smaller than sperm. Pills also harm the body and thus is a sin also against health.

It also reduces ones virtues (Getting sex whenever you want it is not a virtue).

A better alternative (Which is approved by the Catholic and is morally sound if used properly) is NFP (Natural Family Planning). It is very effective and it is a moral form of birth control. It respects the natural cycles that God made our bodies with. By collecting information about the body, one can know when the woman is fertile of infertile (Only in certain periods a month can a woman get a child through sex). It helps build virtues such as patience.

There is a big difference between "I want sex right now" (Contraceptives), and "It would not be responsible it do it right now since we don't have enough money to support another child, let us wait till Tuesday" (NFP)

Yes, the entire Church opposes birth control (Except for NFP), but there are some Catholics that reject the teachings of the Church.

She most likely thinks you're cute, and did not want to make eye contact with you when she noticed you were looking at her. This is a good thing! Unless she just happened to look your way and your eye contact was too awkward for her. Or maybe some of her friends were talking about you and she looked, but then didnt want to bring attention to the conversation by making eye contact with you.

It is very possible that you will gain weight on birth control, it is one of the side effects of Depo-Provera, it can range from 5- 20 lbs in a year. It can be contributed to water weight. If you exercise and eat healthy you can prevent this.

If you have been on birth control for at least 1 month I wouldn't worry about getting pregnant, because you made up for the day you missed as soon as you remembered. Basically you are putting the same dosage of birth control you would have normally have taken. However don't get lax, do not nake it a habit or try not to let it happen again.

Condoms, like all forms of birth control, are never 100% effective. They can break, have microscopic tears or be used wrongly. So yes, you can get pregnant if you use a condom, but the chances are low.

Most people are aware of the common practices which a lot of couples use to avoid pregnancy: keeping watch on menstrual days and avoiding/ practicing sex during that particular period. Rate of success of this method is high.

An unconventional harmless method: success rate is nearing 90%

place a cotton plug soaked in lemon juice or vinegar up vagina after intercourse, this will affect the mobility of the sperms and avoid them from reaching the egg.

When things don't exactly go as they are planned, it is important to have a safe and simple back-up. This is what Plan B® One-Step offers. My patients and I talk about all the birth control options. But as part of that conversation, we also talk about what happens when birth control fails. Or when it's not used. It's extremely important to me that my patients have all the information available. Plan B® has always been what I recommend for emergency contraception. It can significantly reduce the chance of pregnancy after contraceptive failure or unprotected sex. That women can now get Plan B® One-Step in one pill, allowing them to take action even more quickly and just as effectively... this is big news. The introduction of Plan B® One-Step is news that every woman should know.

No it does not. Birth control and/or emergency contraception pills do not work that way. They will not affect a pregnancy once it has begun. If you do not wish to continue your pregnancy seek help though your local Planned Parenthood or women's clinic. Taking an "overdose" also will not stop an existing pregnancy.

You should not get pregnant at all if you are on the pill; hoever, nothing is 100% and the birth control pill is only about 99% effective. I have had a few patients that have gotten pregnant whilst taking the pill. (I'm a doctor)

Hello, There is a few possibilitis as to why you would miss a period when on birth control. These possibilitis are: * Missing or taking too many Birth control pills. * Taking MAP or ECP. * Doseage of BC pills being too high for you. * Pregnancy. See your Doctor for a pregnancy blood test.

A form of birth control that uses a small plastic or metal device. It is placed in the uterus by your doctor transvaginally, through the cervix. It prevents pregnancy by keeping the egg from implanting in the endometrium.

On the streets of downtown, just pay her 200 dollars for the night.

To skip/delay you period while on birth control, you are supposed to start a new pack of pills on the day that you would start your placebo pills. Basically you will skip your placebo week and replace it with an active week by starting a new pack of pills. This may cause you to either skip your period, or delay it. Usually by doing this, it only delays your period, and your cycle will be off next month, meaning you will no longer get your period on the same day that you normally would. Also, by doing this, most likely you will experience breakthrough bleeding.

You may get pregnant if you have vaginal intercourse without using other protection. Some women will have spotting or a change in mentrual cycle for a month or two after stopping the birth control pill. Your periods will likely revert to the pattern they had before you used the pill, so if your period was irregular when you started it pills, it will probably go back to being irregular.

No, but you may still need protection from diseases and a condom may help protect you

Hello, When you first start taking BCP you can experience light bleeding. But any abnormal bleeding while on BCP that isn't pregnancy related, should be mentioned to your doctor. You probably need the doseage of your BCP increased on try a different brand.
