Missed Birth Control Pills. Heavy Period, Tiredness, Headaches. Anything To Worry About?
Hi. I ve been on my birth control for over six months. A couple weeks ago I accidentally missed a day or two of pills. I started my period then and have continued taking birth control normally and on time. I ve been having a unusually heavy period with no end in sight for two weeks. I m feeling weak and tired with headaches . I m wondering if its anything to worry about or should I see a doctor? I am on a high hormone pill, they upped my dosage six months ago because I was having small periods every weeks. Until now on the new dosage, my periods have been on time.
Hi. Your intake of pill was quite erratic and this has probably caused irregular and heavy bleeding. Consult your dr. She may like to get a scan done before putting you on a higher dose of hormones this time to control bleeding.Other symptoms are due to heavy blood loss and anaemia. Thanks.
