Question
isnt pills helps to have balance hormones... if i will take pills wrongly like a weekly before or after my period does it will affect my regular menstruation?

and taking pills without knowing u r pregnant can coz miscarriage?

Answer
Hi Maecy,

I don't recommend birth control pills as they are hormonal. Also, I don't recommend any kind of hormonal birth control. I feel that there are too many risks and side effects. Yes, taking the pills can cause your period or menstruation to be irregular. Also, it's not good to be taking birth control pills if you are pregnant. But I'm not sure if that can cause a miscarriage. What is your situation and can I help you? You may email me at DWooley97@yahoo.com

Sincerely,
Diane W.
