Possible To Get Pregnant While Taking Microgynon 30 And Trimethoprim?
Jun 7, 2013
I have recently been give 200 mg of trimethoprim for a water infection and got told by the doctor to use extra precautions because I am taking microgynon 30(the pill). Stupidly I went out to a family party with my partner and had unprotected sex a lot in that night; he did ejaculate inside of me every time. I have been on the internet every since and there's lots of different people saying yes and no. I clearly won't till my period is due but I would like other fact and opinions.

Just wondering if anyone knows if there would be any reason for microgynon not to be effective with UC if taking pentasa. I would like to think not as I am given repeat prescriptions by my GP but have little faith in any doctors and nurses as of recent so thought I should ask.

I've just been prescribed trimethoprim for UTI and after reading all the posted I'm so afraid of taking them. I had a reaction to norethisterone just over a year ago and it was not very nice at all and I don't want to feel that ever again. But if I don't take these tablets then I'm worried I'll still have the UTI. Is it worth asking my doctor for an alternative?

i'd tried to clear the UTI holistically by drinking gallons of water, cranberry juice, camomile tea and lemon barley squash, thought it was working but after a couple of days felt generally weak and feeble and my urine still tested positive for leucocytes and a trace of protein, so i caved in and decided to take the Trimethoprim. i'm always worried about taking antibiotics because of their weird side effects so i'm hoping these don't have too many, so far i've felt very tired despite having had several naps, i almost fell asleep on the loo. having eaten my evening meal i feel quite sick, not the kind of projectile vomiting i've had before with allergies but a sick feeling deep in my gut, i was ok after a light lunch so maybe eating little and often when taking these pills is best. i'm hoping these are the worst side effects i will get cos i can cope with them by sleeping all day for the next 2 days, it will be worth it to clear the UTI.

I'm on microgynon and had sex around a week and a half before i was due to have my 7 day break, then missed a pill around 3 days and 5 days after (about 15 hours after was due to take i took them). As i had less than 7 pills left in the pack i missed my 7 day break and started a new pack as that's what the leaflet said if you miss more than one pill..
i have read online that it only counts as a missed pill if its more than 24 hours after due to take it anyway so am i worrying about nothing or should i be worried?
I have had about 5 days worth of the new strip but my breasts have been really tender the last few days, if i need to do a test do i need to wait until my next 7 day break or can i do one before?

I have been diagnosed with Chronic Prostatitis and prescribed a 28 day course of 200 mg Trimethoprim tablets along with 2.5mg of Oxybutynin for the same period. Started the treatment several days ago having taken 4 tablets of each drug.There are no immediate side effects apart from a slight dizzyness. Having read the posts about the bad reactions to this drug,it has given me great concern over the long period I have to take these tablets. Are there any other readers to this website who have taken this drug for the same period of about a month ?

I've been on dinette for my acne and bcp for 5 months now. Although last last week I've only stopped my antibiotic(lymecycline) . I was then on my 7 days break after I had unprotected sex today, which is the 6th day of taking new pack of pills. Is it possible I'm pregnant?

So basically I was on microgynon for about 3 years before switching to cerazette as I told the doctors I had headaches from microgynon as I didn't want to have periods anymore (stupid I know). So now I have been on cerazette for about 6 months my bleeding is extremely light however can come at any time. Sometimes for weeks of light bleeding. I now want to swap back to microgynon as I am going on holiday in November and want to ensure I am not bleeding whilst I am there. I am worried that If I switch back I could potentially bleed for a long period of time. My doctor told me to double up on cerazette but I have had other symptoms such as vaginal dryness which is affecting my sex life. If I switch back to microgynon will I bleed for ages or will it just be for a week, I never had problems with this pills before.

I have been on the pill (Microgynon) for a year and a half now. At first I was taking it for contraception, but now I take it to control my periods. I have not experienced any of the side effects that are listed in the leaflets that come with it. I have always been lucky with it and not had any issues!
A couple of weeks ago I decided to take one pack after the other (I've done this before - no issues with it!) as I was going on holiday. Everything is going fine and there is no sign of my period.
I go away again in under two weeks, my period will be due on the Sunday (my first day away) and obviously I don't want this.
I have two options here, leave my last 7 pills and have my period early (again, I am NOT using this pill for contraception at the moment) or take another pack immediately after this pack has finished and miss another period.
(I have not experienced any bleeding whenever I have taken one pack after the other, I have not missed two periods in a row before though).

I'm hoping to get some info about Microgynon as I didn't have a period during my seven day break. I ALWAYS have a period, is this normal? I have the Mirena coil too so it's very unlikely I'm pregnant but is it still possible to conceive with double contraception (the Microgynon is to help with mood swings and the Merina is my main contraception)
Also I had a super super faint line on a pregnancy test. Some can see it, some can't. When I made the photo darker in black and white it's really obvious. Is that line just the chemicals underneath?

I was on microgynon for 2 years. I stopped with it because my relationship had ended and I didn’t have need for birth control pills. I went back on microgynon again to clear acne. I’ve noticed that my face got worse when I stopped with hormones.

I've just started taking these today to try and sort hormones out after they've been flaring for weeks on end, is it normal to feel a little weird when first starting out like mood wise? Just feel a bit unusual.

I'm going on a holiday in a couple of days time, and My period will clash with the holiday. So I went to the doctor to request for pills to delay my period, and the doctor gave me microgynon 30. After taking the first pill yesterday, my 'period' came. The 'period' is really light, unlike my previous month's periods.
So firstly, is that 'period', my actual period? Or is my actual period going to come a few days later. My actual period is due to come around this period too.
Secondly, if the 'period' isn't my actual period, do I still continue taking the pills to delay my period?
Lastly, if it's my actual period, am I able to stop taking the pill completely and let the period continue? Would it have any effects on my period only?
P/s I know that this pill is a birth control pill, but I'm only taking it to delay my period and not for contraceptive purposes

I'm back on this pill after a 2 year break to have a baby.I I started it last month, as advised, the first over my period. I've finished the first Pk, now I'm on day 4 of 7 day break from pill taking, no period has happened. My partner and I have agreed to use condoms also for a couple months to allows the pill to get bk in my system fully as in an extra precaution. All that happened one night when I was about to take it it slipped out hand and rolled under sofa, so I picked a tablet from another Pk for that day and just threw rest that full Pk away. Is it normal to have not had a period yet?

Basically for the last 2 or 3 years I have skipped most of my periods...I think I maybe have about 4 a year?
I just felt so low and scared of being alone with bfs, that i felt 'I'm due on my period. They will want sex. If i can't give it to them, the will break up with me'.
So I would keep skipping the pill...often though I would forget to take it and come on, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, and to force it stop early would eat about 5 or 6 pills in one go...just to force it to stop. I'm not sure how many times a month this would happen, but I mainly used the pill just to stop having a period, the day I would start one.
I know I have probably ruined my body, and my hormones to say the least are all over the place...i was super hormonal and cry-ey and jealous and just an emotional wreck.
But now I'm worried it might have affected my fertility somehow? & Maybe make it harder for me to conceive in the future. (Which is my biggest fear)
I keep getting random pains in my right ovary kind of area.
I will go to my Dr at some point, but I just wondered if anyone knew of anything.
I am also looking to come off the pill and maybe lay off of anything estrogen related/cut down on eggs too. I think my body needs to cut out estrogen all together for a while. Also, I don't trust myself not to be tempted again, if i'm feeling low about myself. I know it works, so I might do it. I am thinking of going on the implant or coil or something instead, but not sure if I should come off all hormonal based contraceptives, or just change to something else?
