Combi pill after birth
Hi, I had a baby 8wks ago and dr has given me the combi pill. Me and hubby have been having unprotected sex and I still have had my period. If I take the pill but was pregnant would I bleed on my 5-7 day break? Many thanks

Gederal combined pill
I’ve been prescribed Gederal combined pill to help with endo and ovarian cyst symptoms. They have told me to take it back to back without a break, I’m just wondering if anyone else does this and finds it effective? Thank you 😊

Changing my contraception
I was thinking on changing my
contraception
to the implant as it would be more convenient for me and wanted to know if I had to go to my doctors to do so or if I could go to a sexual health clinic instead

PCOS pain
I do take the
contraception
pill as I suffered with SERIOUSLY heavy periods to a point where my blood levels would dangerous drop which is why I'm classified as slightly anemic. However, recently, I've been getting an increased amount of pain in both my ovaries specifically my left.

Potential endo advice
Hi all! I’m 24 and came off the mini pill and had the copper iud (non hormonal) fitted roughly 2.5yrs ago. I show symptoms of endo which I’ve been complaining about since coming off the pill and I FINALLY have had a referral to the gynaecologist! So I have unbelievably heavy periods, continuous lower

Birth Control + Adderall?
I have just recently started taking adderall daily, and I am wondering if people who take low-dose (low hormone) birth control have had any interactions with ADHD meds?

Help
Hey, I have been told I have endometriosis but I've never been given the actual diagnosis!! (Annoying!) I've had 2 failed rounds of IVF both resulting in miscarriages and since the age of 18 have been suffering horrendously with my periods, ovulation, and just day to day life. I keep getting fobbed off

Advice on period pains
So I’ve been struggling with period pains since coming of the pill doctor referred me. Had all my ovaries and tubes checked all good but he still thinks it might be endormestrois as my mum had it. So I’m on the waiting list to have that key hole surgery to check if I’ve got it or not. However I am trying

No period on mini pill
I’m new to the mini pill (cerazette) and coming to the end of my 3rd month of taking it. For the previous 2 months on the pill I have had a bleed admitting it was light and only lasted for 3-4 days. However, this month I have had nothing and I have taken a pregnancy test which was negative but still

Medication organisers
When i first started taking one or two medications a day i was getting them out of the cupboard as required, but as the list of medications grew longer I invested in a seven day pill box which was fine when they all had to be taken in the morning. I was then put on other medication to be taken at evening
