Re: [Birth Control] skipping placebos From: Amanda (anonymous@obgyn.net) Wed, 29 May 2002 08:50:52 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: William McIntosh, MD: "Re: Did I miscarry?" Previous message: William McIntosh, MD: "Re: Incontinence Worse After MMK" In reply to: Robin: "[Birth Control] skipping placebos" Hi Robin: I don't know if it matters what pill you are taking but I have asked this question here before in respect to Diane-35 pill. The answer was that it is safe and since I have spoken to my family doctor about it. He said there was no risk to taking b/c pills continuosly for years without stopping for placebos. As for side effects, I spotted most of the first month that I skipped with breast tenderness and then now in my fourth month without a period I am experiencing a long light period. I have had cramps most days over the last four months but very mild and intermittent. Normally without hormones I would have debilitating cramps from Endometriosis for 2-3 days each month so for me this is just great! Please let me know if you recieve any information that suggests there are risks to this practice.
