Can Periods Affect Birth Control Efficacy?

i have a doubt related period and birth control and need assist

1 Answer

Answered on 25th Sept '24

Irregularities in periods are sometimes noticed on the pill. This can be due to the hormones in the birth control that control the menstrual cycle. Common signs of periods not being regular can be spotting between periods, heavier or lighter bleeding than usual, and changes in the timing of your period. Consult a gynecologist if you are worried. They can assist you in determining whether the birth control needs to be changed or if further tests are required.

Doc, is it possible for me to get pregnant if I got pregnant on April 12 then we had sex on April 21 and now I have brown spotting that happens on the due date of my period, what does that mean?

Female | 20

It is highly unlikely to get pregnant just nine days after conceiving on April 12. Brown spotting around the expected period date can have various causes unrelated to pregnancy, such as hormonal changes. However it's best to consult a your doctor for personalized evaluation and advice.

During or after fingering, my girlfriend experiences a lot of burning and pain, which persists for two to three days. What should we do?

Female | 20

She must have an infection or an injury somewhere on the vaginal area. I recommend that she should go to see a gynecologist to get the specific diagnosis and treatment. On the other hand, don't be active sexually to prevent the situation from getting worse or having further complications.

That is not possible. Your late periods may be due to hormonal changes or stress.

Hey , I have an achey pain on the side of both breasts just under the armpit and it feels lumpy , the pain goes away when I’m lying and starts when I’m walking or doing certain activities

You should get it checked by a specialist as soon as possible. It could be a sign of breast infection, cysts or even breast cancer. Just be sure to visit a specialist and get a proper diagnosis.

I am wanting to come off the depo do I need to see my doctor before hand or can I just let it run out

Female | 20

You should ask doctor prior to stopping Depo injections. The discontinuation of this type of birth control without due notice can result in abnormal bleedings and other side effects. Before making any alterations to your birth control system, it is advisable that you consult a gynecologist.

I am 25 year old female . I have indulge in unprotected sex last week. 25th was my periods date but this month i didn't get my periods and in today morning i observed that i have pure white and tight discharge from my vagina. So i want to know what can i do now.

Female | 25

It sounds like you may have a yeast infection. If you have an infection, you may not get your period as a result of a hormonal imbalance. Yeast infections are often accompanied by white discharge. For relief, try using over-the-counter antifungal creams or pills. To avoid further infections, always practice safe sex from now on.
