I just got put on birth control. I have yet to finish the first cycle I have a week or so left. But I have a few questions.
1.) As soon as I start that first pill of the 2nd package, does that mean im completely protected against pregnancies?
2.) Whats the chance of becoming pregnant when on the pill?
3.) Do you get a more increased hunger.. & then a feeling of bloatedness?
CheapChineseFood answered Monday December 18 2006, 11:27 pm: 1. You are never completely protected. But doctors recommend going through a complete package before engaging in sexual activity.
2. You have about a .1-.5% chance of getting pregnant. You will increase this risk if you forget to take a pill. Make DAMN sure you take it at the same time. And if you forget, do not have sex.
3. Some people do gain weight, and rarely do you lose weight. However, the hunger is hormonal. I haven't gained weight, and I've been on it for about 6 months. If you do find yourself hungrier then usual, cure it by eating an apple. They are full of fiber, expand in your stomach and are only 90 calories.
