As John Lennon once said, "Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans." So true.



Giving advice is sort of second nature to me. I use to have a column on here but ended up deleting it. Now once again I have decided to give advice again. I value people and their problems and try to help them the best I can.



No question is a silly question. Every question has importance. I sometimes feel like some of my questions I want to ask are viewed as pointless but have comed to realize that this isn't entirely true.



My biggest pet peeves are bad spelling, grammar and punctuation. It's silly, but I mean it's not that difficult to tell the difference between you're and your. Or even their, they're and there. No offense if you do any of this, but we learned all of these when we were younger in 5th grade (give or take).



Personally one of my favorite quote is by Eleanor Roosevelt. "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
If only people would truly realize this, the world would be so much happier.

I'm supposed to start the Yaz birth control, but because of a heart medicine i had to take the doctors told me wait until after my procedure. well my procedure got canceled. my mom called the heart doctor to see if it was okay for me to start the pill and they said there shouldn't be any problem.
the gyno wanted me to do the sunday start, you know, start the sunday after you start your period. well i got my period on sunday, so i figured this sunday i would have to start the pill. well i was reading the little pamphlet thing that came with the pills and turns out that if you start on a sunday, you have to start that same day.
i mean, i realize it probably does make a difference, but why is it like that? and if i did start this sunday (not saying that i would), it wouldn't be effective, right?

Birth control gives you "fake" hormones in a sense. The hormones they provide are synthetic. The synthetic hormones basically are there to prevent the egg from releasing. They say you have to start the same day since it'd ruin your cycle for your period completely. I'm not sure what color yours are, but usually the first week (ones you take when you have your period) has the synthetic hormones in the pills, as well as the second and third week, the fourth week however is a placebo, which is used for period.

The only reason they tell you to take it that same day is to avoid screwing your cycle for your period. Since usual birth control pills come in a 28 day cycle, you know when your period is going to start when the placebos do. That's why they wanted you to take it then.


Hope this helps. :)
