Diarrhea and multiple pills
| Fri, 04-27-2007 - 12:38pm |
I am on continuous estrogen/progest BC (I have been on multiple packs for the last three months before all this happened).
For the last two days I've been having diarrhea in the morning (when I take my pill). Yesterday I got two hours in before I had it (but still took another pill since it was barely two hours and I counted it as a missed pill). Today I took my morning pill and had about 3 1/2 hours before a mild diarrhea movement. I know this was stupid but I took a second pill today as well (thus I've had 4 BC pills in 48 hours). I'm just so paranoid about getting pregnant. What should I do now? Any advice? I did have unprotected sex last night (which is why I'm freaking out)...other than that haven't had sex in a week.

Hi

Thanks for the response...the first day of being sick was fairly bad (but after I took the second pill that day I managed not to get sick for enough time to absorb the hormones by sheer will) but today I've been much better. I got a little food/water poisoning when I was in another country. I wanted to use backup last night but he didn't think we needed it. I know I'm paranoid about getting pregnant right now (new job) but I think I'll have to be more firm next time around...it has caused me a ton of stress today.
