Im using lady pill for almost 6 months and i really gain weight. I want to switch to althea. How will i start?lady has 28 tablets while althea only 21. ## Hello, Shane! How are you? Just do a smooth switch, unless your doctor has instructed otherwise. You'd just start the Althea tablets on the same day that you'd start a new pack of the Lady pills, then the week of your period, you just don't take any. Is there anything else I can help with? ## hello im using trust pill now but im not comfortable with it.My OB told me to switch althea.when i will be starting to take it(althea)?after the 28 tablet of my trus pill or on the first day of my period which comes always on the 24th tablet ?im confused bcos my OB told me that i will take it in my first day of period? pls help me i h...

Is it ok if i changed pills every month? my first 4 months i took althea pill but i felt that it makes me dry, then i changed to nordette for 3 months but i felt frequently headache, and now Im taking micropill. Is there any effect about it? ## You may experience some more side effects by changing frequently, because of the different hormone levels that are in them, but that's about all, unless your doctor has said otherwise. However, due to that fact, you should settle on one as soon as you can get one that works well for you, without causing problems and not keep switching. Our bodies really don't like the constantly fluctuating hormone levels. Is there anything else I can help with? ## i was determined recently to had a pcos.i am not having menses for almost 3mos.duphaston do...

I started taking Althea pills on Aug. 3. My last menses was July 24. At the same time we used a condom on the 3rd of August and always have contact using condoms. Until now I have not had my menses yet. I'm afraid because my menses always comes on the 20th of every month. Any chance of getting pregnant? ## Hello, Belinda! How are you? Have you checked for pregnancy, yet? Regardless of the precautions used, there is always a slight chance of still getting pregnant, if you're engaging in intercourse. Doubling up on the methods used means the chances of that being the problem aren't very high, but better to check and reassure yourself. If you're not pregnant, the delay in your period could be caused by any one of many different factors, from taking the Althea to your just b...

Yes, they are both hormonal contraceptives that prevent pregnancy and can help regulate your cycle.

I forgot to take 1 pill in the first pack. I saw that I still had my last pill. It is possible to get pregnant? ## Yes, every time you miss a pill, there is a risk of pregnancy, according to NIH reports, though the risk is not very high, if you only missed one tablet. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and irregular bleeding. If you are concerned, there is never any harm in checking for pregnancy, to be sure. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I am on my 4th month of taking althea...

Am i still protected against pregnancy? ## If you started taking them on the first or second day of your period, then you are protected against pregnancy, however, if you started it on any day later than that, there may be a chance that you are pregnant and you should have yourself check for it, according to NIH reports. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms.
