re: 7 week period :'(

Thats okay. You dont even think of it sometimes lol and periods suck especially if you are used to tampons and suddenly you have to use pads. Im 19 and still use pads and probably will all my life because tampons just dont work for me.

I used tampons once and hated everything about it. i don't really mind wearing pads when you only have to wear them for as long as a normal period (mine have always only lasted 4days and never been heavy) but having to wear them for 7weeks and constanly changing them every other hour because of how heavy it is is just sm**rfing awfull :'(

Yeah it wouldnt be nice. I wear night/thin maternity ones 24/7 when I get mine because I know it is always heavy. Tampons just dont feel right and I dont like the clots staying up there. Oh the art of womanhood.

I do understand now why my sisters have always moaned about them. I've never had bad and heavy periods so never really understood why they hated it so much.... NOW i do. lol.

Quoting Dexter's Mummy!:" do you think that could happen? cause i used to take this same pill for 5 years before getting pregnant. I didn't think it would be to do with the pill cause it worked so well for me before. x"

your body and your hormones arent the same after you give birth, so things that ''worked'' good for u b4 u birthed a baby may work differently or not at all after you have a baby. It can take several months to over a year for your hormones to regulate after giving birth and adding ''manmade hormones" in bc to the mix can make it take longer.

Ask about Microgynon 30, have had no trouble with that, still have irregular periods now though and Max is 14 months, its not very often! x

I was on microgynon 30 before cilest and it really didn't agree with me. Same with Marvellon. Might just stay off the pill now. lol x
