Question
ive stoped taking my pill about 5 days ago but ive not started a period what should i do ?
Hi Sarah,
Have you started your period yet? There really isn't anything to do if you haven't. Then you have to find out if you're pregnant or if there is some other reason why your period didn't start. But I'm hoping that you did start. So let me know. You can email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and let me know. We can talk by email. Oh, and I'd like to talk to you about birth control options as well because the pill has some risks and side effects. Talk soon!
