I am posting this in the Health and Women's Issues forums because it relates to both. My boyfriend and I are reuniting soon after he has been away. We have been planning this for months, but now it seems I may get my period when he comes. This is bad. So I decided I would go on the pill, start taking it and delay my period. When I went to the OBGYN for the pills she said that I had to start the pills the sunday AFTER my period started. My question is; what if I just start taking the pills next sunday, before my period starts? Is it safe, and would it be effective at stopping my period from coming? -CB
hmm good question. All I know about that is that in the brochures I read it said you could "spot" or "start bleeding' spurradically on the pill. I woulnd't know, though, because BC pills FUCKED me up mentally... like me and my friend both got panic attacks after we started taking that shit. I wouldn't recommend it.
