Sick while on OTC-Lo
| Sun, 12-03-2006 - 7:39pm |
I'm on the second month of OTC-Lo, just starting week 2 of the pills today. Last Thursday and Friday, on days 5 and 6 of week one, I had severe diarrhea (yuck!). I have two main questions:
1 - My SO lives 4.5 hours away. I won't see him again for another two weeks, and therefore, won't be having sex until then. Will sex be safe at that time, if I am no longer sick? I will have missed these two pills from week one but will have taken every single pill for weeks 2 and 3.
2 - Today, I started having mild cramps and sensitive breasts, just like I get when I'm going to have my period. Is this normal due to the missed pills?
Thanks!

As long as you've taken 7 pills in a row and on time before you see your boyfriend, sex should be as safe as it's going to be.
