I have taken an emergency contraceptive within 48 hours, I also take an oral contraceptive, how long until I should start the oral contraceptive again? And if I can start right away would it effect the bleeding which usually occurs as it is a sign (apparently) that it has worked?

I was diagnosed with PCOS via ultrasound. I had severe acne, irregular periods and STRONG cravings for particular foods. I also found i became depressed.
Is there much treatment out there? My dr said that only healthy eating and exercise can help - which obviously i try do on a day to day basis generally.

I don't know much about which brand of oral contraceptive I should use, partly due to nurses at planned parenthood not being very informative. Since there are many MANY different brands I figured I would just shout out my ultimate dream pill and see what suggestions you guys can give me. I want a pill that won't lower my libido and increases breast size. Some have taken me from a b to a d, some only half a cup. Would love that extra boob again lol thanks guys!**also I tend to get a little emotional so I'm not too sure where to go from here.

I just want to ask if the low dose oral contraceptive pill. Is it less effective because it is low dose? I am worried that it is less effective, I had sex with my bf 2 days ago he always pull out because I said so. Yes, i'm on a pill but still I don't want him to come inside. Is pulling out helpful?

I am 19 years old and have been with my boyfriend for nearly three years now. I am also dealing with some MASSIVE anxiety issues and really cannot have a child right now. Because I know this, my boyfriend and I are always extremely careful to use a condom in addition to me taking my birth control pill every day at a consistent time.
When I was 16 and became sexually active, I started Loestrin 24/Fe. This pill worked extremely well for me. However it has been discontinued and my doctor put me on Microgestin 1/20 Fe. I was on Microgestin 1/20 Fe for one cycle, and she then put me on Gildess 1/20 Fe. I have been told by my pharmacist and doctors that Loestrin 24/Fe, Microgestin 1/20 Fe, and Gildess 1/20 Fe all have the same ingredients and hormones. So I was not expecting any problems.
When I started Gildess 1/20 Fe, I randomly got my period very early on in the cycle when I was not supposed to. This obviously concerned me. I talked to my doctor and continued taking the pills and got my period again when I was supposed to. I also took two pregnancy tests just to be sure (they came back negative obviously).
So I started my next pack of Gildess 1/20 Fe. This is only my second pack of Gildess 1/20 Fe and I am about a week in. On the last week of my FIRST pack of Gildess 1/20 Fe (the placebo pill week), my boyfriend and I had intercourse (this occurred about a week ago). However we ALWAYS use a condom without fail as a backup method in addition to me taking my birth control pills and from what I can tell, we use to the condom correctly to our very best ability. He typically puts the condom on himself but I also try to make sure he puts it on correctly, and that it has not broken, etc.
However, two nights ago I noticed my breasts felt sore and now I am completely freaking out. I have experienced breast soreness before but this is really scaring me because of the problems I experienced with my period on my first month of Gildess and because this is a new pill to me in general. I know that breast tenderness is sometimes an early pregnancy symptom. I grew so comfortable with Loesterin 24/Fe and now I feel so scared all the time that I may be pregnant.
I take my birth control as consistently as possible. It's one of the very first things I do when I wake up in the morning. Sometimes I worry though because I wake up later on the weekends than I do on the weekdays and I know it's also very important to take your pill at the same time everyday :/
I am honestly so scared all the time that I may be pregnant because I really cannot handle that right now. So I am wondering, if I take my birth control pills as consistently as I can and use a condom every time I have sex, what are my chances of getting pregnant? From what I can tell and research I have done I am being almost as safe as I possibly can without abstaining from sex altogether. But still, I have this constant nagging fear, especially since I am experiencing the breast tenderness. But I have also read that breast soreness is a side effect of some birth control pills, especially when you start a new one. Should I be scared? I just don't know if I have reason to be scared, or if it's my anxiety kicking in, or if I should possibly talk to my doctor about being put on a different birth control pill, or what
I am just so worried that maybe something went wrong with both the pill and the condom. Like what if my pill wasn't effective because I do not take it at the EXACT same time every single day (although I take it as close to the same time as I can and I try really really hard, it's just that sometimes my schedule varies because I wake up at different times for class, appointments, etc) and something happened to the condom, like it got snagged or we didn't check it properly or what not. Ugh I don't know, I'm just really really scared and I do not like it

I started using Qlaira oral contraceptive 6weeks after I had my baby in February 2014, I am now starting my fourth month on Qlaira. Every month I started bleeding around day 14 or 15 it lasts a few days and then it stops, then i start bleeding again when I start drinking the dark red tablets and then it also lasts a few days. This month I bled on the first day of the pack and it stopped, I am now on day 4 and started bleeding again, is this normal?

It's been about 8 months now, I haven't had a period and also my nipples have been hard and get small randomly. I'm not emotional or anything. I haven't taken birth control in 2 years.
And I've also taken pregnancy tests. But also at 8 months.... I would know if I was pregnant! I'm still skinny!

I've had my first period when I was 12. Ever since I guess, my period length varies but it's always around 7 days. This month, my period has been lasting for 11 days as of today. At first, it was dark brown with light flow. Then it became normal flow but it's still dark brown. Soon, it became like a normal period flow, dark red. Then right now, it's light red, somehow it's watery. It's my first time to experience this and I don't know what's wrong. Last month I had my period (October). The month before that I didn't (September). I don't usually have missed periods, but that wasn't my first time. Anyway, I had my first (protected) sex last August, after I had my period. Although the condom we used was placed in his wallet for 4 months, could that have tampered it? We didn't do it for long since it hurt. I'm giving out too much details but I just want to know what's happening. Am I pregnant? But I had sex like 4 months ago.

I have been taking Microgestin FE for over a year and have not missed a period. I am now over a week late. My first and only sexual experience I have had occurred about three weeks ago and we used a condom that did not break. I take my birth control regularly and have not missed a dosage in over two months. I have also taken three pregnancy tests that have come back negative. I have had all the symptoms suggesting the start of my period without it actually starting. What is the possibility that I am pregnant? And what else could be the cause of this? Could losing my virginity be the cause of this?

I'm 26 and have suffered with acne since i was 13/14 been on and off different tablets since to clear it up. I am on my second course in 5 years on isotretinoin which has been doubled to 80mg a day now. My dermatologist told me it sounds like HS i have around my groin and inner thigh area and the tablets i am taking will help. After reading basically everywhere they won't i have decided to look around and speak to others to see what i can do to help. From reading others i have noticed it started a few years ago when i got boils under my armpits and after finding nivea for men with no alcohol and with minerals it controls it, if i use anything else it flares up. Now I get them nearly every week on my thigh and lately on my groin which is horrible and pops puss's and bleeds. I got some antibiotics for it and now 3 weeks later it has flared back up again. I suffer from stiff legs when get up and move so this doesn't help as it is very uncomfortable to walk. I work in a local retail shop so I'm on my feet everyday. I have joined the gym but find it hard to go because of the pain I can be in.

Can dry sex result in pregnancy? Like dry rubbing when you have 2 layers of clothes on? I didn't have intercourse but was wearing the bottoms and underwear as well. Also my bf was wearing condom. The condom slipped and spilled a bit, but can this result in pregnancy? I am not having my periods and I am really scared.

26 yr old female having problems with my menses from past 5 yrs. I get my periods on time about every month on the same date or around the last menstrual date . But the bleeding has declined a lot. My periods only stay for 2 days and stop after the 2nd day. I have minor spotting for 4-5 days after my periods and it's brown in color. About 3 years ago i got an ultrasound done of my ovaries because i was concerned about the changes in my periods and on the report it was mentioned that i have small follicles in my left ovary and the size of my ovary has increased. Ever since that I didn't get any check up done or didn't consultant with the ob-gyn I had to trouble back to US because I was in India for my education purposes. Then I got busy with work didn't pay much attention. From last year I have had a lot of acne on my face,neck,chest,and back..severe dandruff that won't go away with medicated shampoos..hair loss and hair gotten thinner, gaining weight..gained about 7 kgs in a few months . Although I have been working out once or twice a week or sometimes 3-4 times a week and good control on my diet yet no signs of weight loss. I started having facial hair especially on the sides on my face, mustache , and bit hair around nipples. I currently don't have any insurance and I am unemployed. But I am trying to work on the insurance..hopefully i get it soon. Please review my symptoms...somewhere I think It's PCOS. I have been feeling really stressed from few years and having a lot of mood swings too..feeling irritated and depressed most of the times.
