Using pill to delay period = pain?
 

Hi, all. This is one for the ladies or people who know more about this than me :)
I have been taking Yasmin for about a year and a half now and for the first time ever I used it to delay my period whilst on my holiday this month. The booklet that I received with my Yasmin states that it "isn't recommended" but safe to do occassionally, so long as its only for one month.

I'm halfway through my second consecutive strip, having skipped my eight pill-free days after the last strip.
Yesterday I woke up with a aching in my lower belly which occassionally felt quite sharp, like trapped wind. I've woken up with it again this morning and it's very uncomfortable. It's not a very severe pain but it is pretty unpleasant and I just feel concerened.
The NHS website said that stomach pains and bloating can be expected when delaying a period, but I'm not sure whether I should press on and finish this second strip or stop taking them now. :notsure:

Anyone else had any experience with this? I feel a bit worried.

i take the microgycon (sp?) pill and i very often take it back to back though i been told not to. If you delay it a bit more the pain might get worse, but perhaps you should ring the doctor and just double check? x x
