birth control pills

This may sound like a dumb question but do women still get their periods when they are on birth control pills?

I have never used birth control pills before and am thinking about it.

What's a good brand for birth control pills?

Those special pills...

Is it common for women to gain weight initially when they begin to take birth control pills? I, personally, am not on birth control, but am considering going on it as of late. Any suggestions for a specific brand or other methods of birth control?
(Minus a condom or diaphram, I know these methods already!)

Birth Control Working?

I've been on birth control pills for about 2 years. I've gone about 4 or 5 months without forgetting a single pill. But last week, i went a few days without them ( no sex). I was suppose to start them on Friday, but started them on Monday, so i've had 6 pills so far. I had sex today, and my partner pulled out..are the pills back in my system.. could i get pregnant??

Birth Control

Can you stop taking birth control pills cold turkey?

This the first week of my second month on birth control pills and I lost them. What will happen to me if I can't find them soon (missing for one day). I definitly will not be having sex b/c I am not ready for another child, that's not my question. I am wondering if there are any health risks involved in an abrupt stop in birth control.

I looked on the internet and couldn't find anything I can't refill my prescription b/c I have to go back to my doctor for a check up to see how well I've taken to the pills and she can't see me until next week. Any thing you know would be helpful. Thanks.

Anyone who has time, and are female, could you please explain the birth control pills?

I've read information on them, but I sometimes get confused. For example:

Birth control pills are not effective immediately. From the day you begin taking your first pack of pills, it takes one full cycle (1 pack of pills) to start effectively preventing pregnancy.

Does that mean I can get pregnant even if I take them? Should I use a box before I have sex to be safer?

And also, you need to get a physician to obtain a prescription? so I cant just go and grab one, pay for it and use them? I have to ask for it?
that's embarrassing for me >< I'm a really shy girl.

Why birth control pills?

An elderly woman went into the doctor's office. When the doctor asked why she was there, she replied, "I'd like to have some birth control pills."

Taken aback, the doctor thought for a minute and then said, "Excuse me, Mrs. Smith, but you're 75 years old. What possible use could you have for birth control pills?"

The woman responded, "They help me sleep better."

The doctor thought some more and continued, "How in the world do birth control pills help you to sleep?"

The woman said, "I put them in my granddaughter's orange juice and I sleep better at night."

BC pills and acid reflux

One online source said that taking birth control pills can cause or worsen acid reflux. I am trying to find some scientific articles to see if it's true. I haven't found any yet.

Does anyone know for sure, do birth control pills cause/worsen acid reflux or not? OR, in your experience, have you developed or experienced worsening of your acid reflux after taking birth control pills?

My crazy period

Hello ladies, I have a question. Does anyone on here have any problems with their periods? What I mean by problems is that it comes when it feels like it. My period spots the every other month at the same time for about three days. My doc told me i need to get on my birth control pills to regulate my period but i dont want me taking them pills to stop me from having children one day and besides when i tried to take them they made me fell bloated and fat. I have heard so many stories that birth control pills are not being good for you. My mom said leave the pills alone and when I am ready to have children ask for fertilty pill. Anyone else go the same problem?

hey this question is for the ladies? when your in a relationship and have decided to become exclusive with one another what type of birth control have you chosen to use when you stopped using condoms. (I.U.D., birth control pills, sponges, film, etc.) I really want to know if anyone has tried anything other than birth control and how well it has worked for you.
