Can you take the morning after pill if you have HS? I know the contraceptive pill is a no no, but i am just curious to know if the morning after pill is also a no no. Hope my question doesnt affend anyone as i am wanting to know the things my doctors havent told me.

Thank you

Hi,

I have never ever been on the Pill or anything like. So I cannot comment. I hardly had periods either.

Hi jumpingpeggy, im the same, my monthlies where all over the place and they havent settled down after i gave birth to my daughter. how long have you had HS?

[Charli84]

Can I just ask did you have your daughter with Hughes syndrome or was that diognosed after?

[katrinahug03]

Hi Charli84, had my daughter with Hughes Syndrome, I was diagnosed in 2011 my daughter born end of 2012. had to have a lot of check ups and medication

[Charli84]

Thank you. We're you ever told that its not recommended?

hi charli84, i was told that any pregnancy i had will be very high risk and need constant monitoring and that cant have children without the medication because my miscarriages have all been very early, but my doctor told me that as long as everything planned then if i was willing to go through the risks then it was our choice. they always remind me of the risks and what can happen and how lucky we are, my answer to that is i know how lucky we are and that my daughter is my miricle. i went through a hell of a lot to get her and nearly lost her but shes now 5 and a half months old and such a character, she amazes me everyday, the morning after pill havent been told anything by doctors about that, but the contraceptive pill increases ur chances of clots so its a no no, my heamatologist told me that.
