Mini Pill – advice please?
ok, so im having to switch from the combined pill to the progesterone only pill….but i didn’t take the first pill of the POP pill following the last day of the combined. So im starting the POP pill today (which would be a week after finishing the combined pill) what can i expect to happen? and for how long am i not protected contraceptively? (My partner and I do use barrier methods too, but will abstain until i know i am protected)
Also has anyone else been on this pill? Im very scared about starting it as ive heard bad reports about it (hence why i didn’t start it straight away, so i could talk to a doctor). If so…what side effects did you suffer? Im most concerned about depression, weight gain, headaches, and a lack of periods (concerned if this may affect future fertility) NB – I have endometriosis, will this affect it?
Please help….any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
