I have one question. I started taking Yasmin less than a month ago. I took it for five days, but on the sixth day, I stopped because I had intense chest pains and other issues. My period arrived about five days later, but it was extremely light and only lasted one day. Do you think my next cycle will arrive on schedule—since it’s usually very punctual—or is it possible it might come early or late because I stopped and my hormones haven't stabilized yet?

Hannah Peterson14 said:Yeah, I actually stopped taking Diana a few days ago too. My doctor told me my cycle might be late by up to three weeks while my ovaries get back to normal.

Did you have any ovarian pain? Thanks for the info.🙂

Quick question: I stopped taking my Yasmin pills on September 26th (which was when I should have just kept going as usual). My period is now two days late, and I’m wondering if this delay is normal while my hormones settle back down, or if I should be worried? Thanks.

What are the actual symptoms of those fungi?

Take this scenario... a girl is recounting her exploits with some guy.
And she says:
"We hooked up in a restroom yesterday... a public one... then once in a park... before that, even at a McDonald's... blah blah blah... I flew to Vienna yesterday and slept with five guys I'd never seen before in my life, but they were just so sweet."
Then you ask her:
"What about protection?... Are you using any?"
And she just looks at you, totally self-assured, and snaps:
"No... I don't give a damn..."

Fast forward to the scene where she calls you, sobbing hysterically, saying she's pregnant, she's getting an abortion tomorrow, and she can't believe this happened to her.

Now... how are you supposed to have empathy for someone like that?
I wish someone could teach me, because frankly, I have zero sympathy for it. 😢

If you think I'm some slut, you're wrong. I've been with my boyfriend since I was sixteen, and he's the only person I've slept with in the last two years. Watch what you say! 😠

Local anesthesia?

You all have been a huge help!!! As for those nasty comments, I’m ignoring them. I’m practically just a kid myself and I am nowhere near ready to raise a child; we would both just end up suffering. I can't provide anything without relying on my parents or my boyfriend, and I refuse to live like that. Once I have my own financial stability, having a child becomes an option—so, after college. I made a massive mistake, but I'll consider it a lesson learned for the future.

placidorca16 said:It’s possible via pills like RU-486 or misoprostol, but not here in the States. You can't even order that medication through our pharmacies. 🙄 You’d be closest to Austria. Here, the best move is to get an ultrasound first if you haven't already, then head to an authorized clinic. You could try St. Jude’s; they’re decent. They won't use a curettage during early pregnancy (up to 8-9 weeks), so it will be a vacuum aspiration instead. Ask about anesthesia options. You can demand general anesthesia if you insist. Local isn't terrible, but you'll feel it. Still, it's far less intense than giving birth. The procedure is quick—ten minutes max. There won't be any psychological fallout if this was your own decision. Having support from those close to you is huge. Being judged by family only makes the mental recovery harder. You won't face physical consequences if it's done on time by a professional. Complications from childbirth are much more frequent than from a medically sound, properly performed abortion. Ignore the fearmongers and the moralists if you know what you want. Good luck.🙂

Vacuum? If you actually know something about that, speak up.

I heard some women might need to be under anesthesia. If anyone actually knows anything about this, please post here...

Thanks for all the input. I'm heading to the hospital tomorrow to get this sorted. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.

Is there any other way to handle this, or is Kiretaza the only option?

I'm 18 and four weeks pregnant. I want an abortion. Is it possible to do this with pills or through a standard procedure? If anyone knows, please describe how both options actually work and what they look like. Thanks.
