What are the chances?
| Thu, 10-23-2003 - 7:21pm |
I have been on BCP(Alesse) for about 5 years, and my periods have always been like clockwork, even if I did miss a pill or two. I am overweight and I know that your chances of getting PG increase if you are overweight and taking the pill. Three months ago, I missed about a week of pills, although they were not consecutive. That month I got my AF a week early, so I started the next pack of pills a week earlier than usual. The week that I would normally have my period, I was spotting. This was the first time that I have ever spotted. Then my next two periods came on time, but they only lasted for a couple hours each time. This has also never happened, as my AF generally lasts from 3-5 days. I am expecting my next period next Friday (10/31), but for the past month I have experienced cramping, gas, frequent urination, and tender breasts. These are not normal AF signs for me. I have taken a HPT, and it was negative. I also have not missed a pill in the last two months. I am so confused because I feel PG, but it could be all in my head. Or it could be PMS or just hormones from the BCP. What do you think?
