Too Late?

I've been on Tri-Sprintec for over a year now. I don't always take them at the same time. I've been up to 8 hours late. Lately i've been pretty good about it. I also take my pills without stopping for up to three months straight (to avoid my menstral cycle)I've been on the pill for a total of 5 years. What could I be doing to my body? PLEASE HELP!

I appreciate your quick response! I have my annual pap exam today and I always chicken out on asking about and telling things I should. How do I get over that? Thanks!

What about making a list of things you want to talk about? So you don't forget and the doctor can see you had some foresight into things. It may be intimidating to talk actually during the exam, so ask to speak with him/her afterwards and have a discussion. You're paying for their time!
