I had a miscarriage in July and was given clearance to resume normal activities on Aug. 9th and was provided Lo loestrin FE sample for bc. My Dr. told me I could start taking them that day, even though it wasn't the 1st day of my period. My period then started during week 3 of the pills and lasted 2 weeks. When it was time to get a new pack my insurance wouldn't cover it so I had to wait one day before I could get a new sample pack from my Dr. I began the new pack the same day I got the sample from my Dr. I just completed week 3 and my cycle has not started. Should it be on now since it started during week 3 last month or see what happens during week 4 of the pills? ## Hello, Tip! How are you doing? I am so very sorry about the miscarriage. As to the contraceptives, yes, you mos...

After stopping loestrin fe 1/20 how soon can I get my next period? Please help. We are ready for a baby. (: ## Hello, Lala! How are you? It's difficult to say, because it will usually take awhile for your body to balance your hormones back out on its own and for ovulation to occur. You should consult your doctor to be sure, but it's usually said to take about 3 months for things to get back to normal and for you to be able to get pregnant. Are there any other questions or concerns?

do you think that this new drug could replace the ever popular percocet? My pharmacy goes through at atleast 20 or so scripts for percocet (real and phony) each day. When word gets out do u think this could be the new rage for junkies and people who suffer from long term pain? ## There will always be something that is the 'in thing' for those that want to get high, the prevailing preference usually goes according to whatever is easiest to obtain. Combunox contains Oxycoodone, and Ibuprofen, so it is an opiate, the FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. These combination medications are usually not as strictly regulated as medications like Oxycontin, and MS Contin, so...

I have breast cancer that spread to my bones. For awhile now I've been taking norco 10's. They aren't working as well as they used to...so my question is what would be the next step up for pain control? I have a dr appt in a few days and was wondering what he might put me on? ## Hello, Hootsie! How are you? I am very sorry about your medical condition and that you're in so much pain. It's hard to guess what your doctor might recommend, but there is a time released formulation of Hydrocodone that's available, without the Acetaminophen, in higher doses, so if it works well for you, that might be the way to go. It's called Zohydro. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, ...

Hi folks, I've been taking Norco 10/325 for apx. 5 years now. My dosage is take 1-2 every 4-6 hours for pain. I have herniated discs, injury to spine from car accident & just recently sciatica. Sciatica pain to me for a female is like labor pains that never stop. So unfortunately I have to take certain medications to help. The Norco 10/325 has not been as effective which I knew this was going to happen sooner or later. My doctor did at one time (about a year ago) offered me to see his associate that prescribes oxycontin/Oxycodone and I refused telling him that I just don't want to go to something stronger. It scared me. NOW, I have been considering it and his associate no longer is there and I'd have to go to another office, a pain clinic to get them. While in the hospit...

Iam using nurokind-next from 15 days my problem was right hand thumb nurves are like catching left leg foot has same problem and this is before using this tablets and after using tablets iam having a mild ness does these are because of side effects or not what is the solution

My partner and I are ready to start trying to conceive. Just not this month. We plan to start trying as of August on my next ovulation and however long it takes. I use this app that tells me my high fertility days and i have been tracking it with test strips and it's pretty accurate. I had unprotected intercourse on Saturday, 7/18 and my first day of high fertility started on 7/20, however i am aware that sperm can live in you for up to 5 days. If i take a plan b pill, it will either delay ovulation or stop the egg from releasing. Will this affect my ovulation window for next month? If the egg is stopped from releasing, what happens to the egg? ## Hello, Ang! How are you? Any egg that isn't released is harmlessly reabsorbed into your body. However, if you're trying to get pr...

sir i m using nurokind next tablet from last 15 days. I have shoulder pain near spinal cord. Is this medicin good for me to cure my problrm??? ## Hi swati, Nurokind reportedly contains 500mcg of Mecobalamin (Vitamin B12), which has been recognized for helping nerve related disorders in those who are deficient in this nutrient. I haven't found any specific details stating that it will "cure" such conditions. However proper treatment protocols are something that should be determined by your doctor based on an in-person evaluation of the said condition in order to better understand the underlying cause of your shoulder pain and whether or not it is attributed to a pinched nerve or other possible factors. Do you have any idea what movements may have caused the pain to begin with...

im currently under a new drs. care, he prescribed me opana 5mg er....my next appointment is in 2 days and there were a couple times i had to take an extra one ,because i was in terrible pain...should i just be honest with him? if i take one tomorrow , that will leave me one for my visit & i dont want him to think that ive been abusing them, which i havent, should i ask for a hefty increase, cause i was once on roxicodone 30mg....or should i also ask for something for breakthrough pain or request to be put on roxicodone, or would the opana 30 or 40 mg solve this issue, thanks ## Honesty is your smartest bet and the only way to let him know that the current dosage is not controlling your pain. If you were abusing them, you would have run out a lot sooner and wouldn't even have one...

Hi . I hardly see my periods. After reading online the prescription for primolut n,I took it twice daily for 10 days, on the 14th day, my period came heavily for 4days. Now that my period has come for the month, I want to know the next date to continue the next primolut n as it is to be taken for the next 5months. ## Hello, Grace! How are you? Unless your doctor instructs otherwise, it is normally taken from the 15th day of your cycle, counting from the first day of your period, to the 25th day. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, spotting and PMS-like symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello Verwon! I’d been prescribed Primoult N twice daily for 7 days and Glycomet 500g i.e. Metformin 500 mg twice daily.. sho...

Hi, so I've had clogged pores for awhile which I've been trying to get rid of. I've tried numerous things and they only have gotten a little better but I'm mostly worried about the neck. My skin looks kind of swollen now for messing with them. I purchased a black head extractor to help and I used it kind of hard a couple times as well. I'm worried that there will be scars or my skin will look weird for the rest of my life. If anyone could give me advice it would be much appreciated.

Question on the Lo Loestrin Fe packs. I am getting ready to start a pack and will begin on my first day of my period. I have a big vacation next month and want to avoid my period. Do I take all 24 blue and then skip the 2 white and 2 brown and start the next pack immediately or do I need to take the 2 white? ## Hi Lee, While I don't have an exact answer to all your questions, I seem to have come across a step by step process for delaying your periods while on birth control.

Hi! If i drink althea pill 2 weeks after my last period when will i have my next period? Will it still be within the 7 day rest or is it gonna be earlier? Please help ## It should still occur during that 7 day rest period. The NIH lists the other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, spotting, and PMS-like symptoms. Are you on any other medications? Why did you start it so late?
