One of those annoying girly questions.
Uh, yeah, this isn't humiliating at all :-p
Basically I am on a birth control pill to help with my periods, as I have fainted in the past and get extremely nauseous, etc. But the pills have been worsening my already terrible migraines, so I have not been taking them for about a week now. My period ended about a week and a half ago, when I was still taking the birth control. But now that I have stopped I have suddenly started bleeding again and am having cramps. Is this normal? Is it just spotting, or will I have a full period again? I'm super confused, hence why I am posting this to begin with. Anyway, input is appreciated. Thanks :) |
If you stop taking the pill, your body will eventually return to full periods. As it counts stopping as a break and time to do so. Eventually this will even back out to a regular period.
The pill can cause migrains as a side affect. But, as with all medication you should not stop taking it without speaking to your Dr. I would suggest talking to them about alternative forms of birth control or other options that may help with your symptoms. You do not say if you are active, sexually, but if you are, you are not covered since you have not been taking the pill. So should use condoms until you have organised and alternative. I understand the migraines as a side affect, as I had that and have since changed to Depo-provera, which is a slow release injection. It is one of the alternatives available. |
Go to your GP. Some of the pills do have migraines as a side affect but ther are different types so you're GP should be able to recommend one thats best for you. Take care and hope you feel better soon

your periods will get back to normal, the bleeding is because the hormone levels will be changing. mand x

I was on birth control and got migraines from them. I ended up stopping and my periods went back to normal (for myself).

yeh as mentioned above, in time your periods will go back to normal. ubt its worth speaking to your GP as there are lots of differnt pills you can take.
