i am on a birth control pill. not for sexual reasons, its for period issues. i missed my pill the other day, but i took it the following day. i am somewhat on my period now, since i missed that day, like only a little, and i have horrible cramps! i took the pill within like a day and i only missed one. shouldnt my period be going away now? its been like 3 days. and also, i dont remember because i haven't had a period in FOREVER! but i have a lot of gas lately! ever since i missed my pill. its like bad haha. is this part of having your period? thanks!!
boxocrackas answered Wednesday November 21 2007, 7:36 pm: Yes, gas is definitely part of having your period. Periods suck. I don't know if I misunderstood your wording, but if you miss your pill one day, you take it as soon as you remember (the next day), then still take the next one for that day. So you'd be taking 2 in one day.
You shouldn't be having horrible cramps, but it depends how long you've been on the pill. If you've recently started, the pill actually causes stomache pains for a while. It doesn't immediately relieve the pain. Give it a month or so.
Also, every girl's period ranges. If you're on the pill, your period can be anywhere from 3-5 days. Everyone's body reacts differently, so don't worry about it.
Hope your crampies go away :) [ boxocrackas's advice column | Ask boxocrackas A Question ]
