Can i just stop taking BCP or do i have to consult with my doc.??

i have never taken them before and have only been on them for 2 months but i really dont like how they make me feel at all ..

i am on the placebo pills right now so as im at the end of the pack i thought now was probably a good time to stop

any advice would be great as i really am new to BCP and dont know what is the best way to end them ...

Were you on them for any medical reason? If not, you can just stop taking them.

I was in the exact situation... i HATED the way the BCP made me feel and look, so I just stopped them at the end of the pack BUT 2months later....PG with Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon


Do u have another form of BC lined up instead of the pill?

Have you thought about getting an IUD? I love it, it's great bc you don't have to remember to take a pill and then if you decide to have kids all you have to do it go back to your OB and take it out.
