The pill????!
Question:
The pill????
I am due to be on my period for my holiday, which is a huge inconvenience, because i suffer from severe pains and sometimes sickness. I've heard that when you take the pill you can choose when to have your period, and it also stops pains. But does it work, does it cause bad skin, and does it make you gain weight?
Answers:
alot of these problems caused by the pill are dependant on what pill you are on and how your body adapts to it.
i am on mercilon which, has not caused me to gain weight and my skin is fine. it is true i can choose to skip my period by continuing with my pill instead of taking the week break.
if your holiday is within next couple of months, i doubt very much that you will be able to skip your period as it takes a good couple of months for your body to adapt to the pill and to get into a routine.
speak to your doctor for advice.
