Question
Dear Diane,

Last month I took the emergency pill 3 times and 2 weeks later I got my periods so I started to take the birth control pill. But from last week I had some pain in the lower abdomen. It appears suddenly and lats for few minutes only. What's wrong with me?

Please reply to me soon.
Thank you so much.
Elina

Answer
Hi Elina,

Thanks for your question. Do you still have the pain you are talking about? If so, I would urge you to consult with your doctor. Don't take any chances with your health and life.

Also, I don't recommend that you take the emergency pill on a regular basis. Please read the article at http://www.optionline.org/map.html
I did read the article and I'm concerned about you taking the EC pill 3 times.

So email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and let me know how things are going.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
