Question
I started taking birth control pills to regulate my period, because of PCOS problem my period is not coming regularly. I took it for two month and stopped it but my period also start being irregular, so may i start it again? and if yes for how long i have to?  can i start it in any day?

Answer
Please consult your doctor about your situation. Why did you stop it after 2 months? I don't usually recommend birth control pills or any kind of hormonal birth control method. In my opinion, there are possible risks and side effects from this. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com so we can talk more.
