Birth Control: Should I start taking my pill again as usual?
Question Posted Friday June 4 2010, 5:33 am
I have been on birth control pills for 3 months now. However in the last 2 weeks I have been unable to take them due to some medication I have been on. I am not currently having sex so this isn't a problem, but I think it may have messed up my periods as I am due on my period now and I haven't started. Should I start taking my pill again as usual?

But answer to your question. There are hormones in BC pills, so it may have messed your cycle up a little. Be sure you are not pregnant even though you haven't had sex since you quit the pill. If there is some type of medicine that gives you a reason to not take your Birth Control, then don't. You may want to call your Doctor that put you on the pill. Good Luck sweetie!
