Where can you buy humphrey 11?

You added this to the Miscarriage category and Humphrey 11 does not cause miscarriage or abortion if that is what you are aiming at. It makes the cervix soft and brings delayed period back for other reasons then pregnancy and considering it makes you bleed I would think it's on prescription.

How do you deal with finding condoms in your moms room?

As hard as it is for children to accept, Moms are also regular people in addition to being Moms. As such, they do everything that other regular people do, including having sex. It's a good thing that they do, because otherwise you wouldn't be here to ask this question.

If your Mom wants to discuss her sex life with you, she'll bring it up; otherwise, don't mention it. It isn't something that you need to spend any time thinking or worrying about. Growing up is hard enough without spending time and energy on things that don't need attention.

Do Jehovah's Witness believe in abortions or birth control?

Jehovah's Witnesses have no prohibition against the use of birth control. They would, however, object to a method of birth control that resulted in the destruction of an already fertilzed egg since they believe life begins at conception and that this would violate a respect for the sanctity of life.
If they so desire. The Awake magazine, printed by Jehovah's Witnesses, of 22nd February 1993 says

''Does the Bible condemn birth control? No, it does not. The choice is left with the couple. If a married couple decides to practice birth control, their choice of contraceptives is a personal matter. However, the method of birth control a Christian couple chooses should be governed by a respect for the sanctity of life. Since the Bible indicates that a person's life begins at conception, Christians would avoid contraceptive methods that abort, or end the life of, the developing child.''

How do you catch up after missing 4 birth control pills?

If you take the morning after pill and contiue to take the birth control pill is the birth control still effective for the rest of the month?

If you had missed a pill or been late with a pill, causing you to take the morning after pill, then you should use a back up method of birth control for the next seven days. If you didn't forget a pill or take a pill late, then I'm not sure why you took the morning after pill, but the birth control pill will still be effective even though you took the morning after pill. The morning after pill doesn't make the birth control pill less effective.

Is a vasectomy still effective years after it was performed?

Yes. There have been a couple of very rare cases where a vasectomy has not been permanent due to the man's severed tubes "reconnecting" by forming a new path - nature overcoming! But these cases are very rare compared to the vast number of vasectomies performed. After having the procedure, you should've been tested - about a month later - to make sure it was successful. After this time you should consider yourself sterile.

Can other medication you take at the same time as your birth control cancel out your birth control?

Yes, but there are some medications that interact with oral contraceptives, so it is important that you let your pharmacist and doctor (if there are different prescribing doctors) what medicines you are currently taking.

If you have been on birth control for 3 years and ready to go off and to try to conceive when is the possible chance to conceive?

Will taking birth control instantly stop your period if you are already on it?

generally not. birth control takes about a month to work. certain kinds are made to stop your period but others contain a week of blank pills (pills without a hormone) to allow your period to happen once a month, even while your birth control is in effect. for some people, like me, it stops your period anyway though. sometimes you have to switch different brands to see which one is right for you.
