I am currently taking Sprintec (birth control) I have been pretty good with taking it however I sometimes take it at 9:00pm and other times around 10:30. I have had 2 or 3 times where I forgot and had to take it in the morning. I have been on it for 2 months now. I recently called my doctor to see if my numbness, and tingling in my hands, arms, legs, and feet are from this. They suggested I stop taking it however I was afraid to since my boyfriend and I have not been very safe. Two weeks ago I was cramping like menstrual cramps and I have had them from time to time since. Last week I started spotting, I know birth control can cause this however this is the first time I have had spotting. My boyfriend is out of town and usually I have trouble sleeping however this time I am having no issues at all. In addition to all this last week I had a hard time having a bowel movement, and the past couple days everything I eat seems to go straight through me. Tonight is my last active pill and tomorrow I am on the placebo pills. I guess I am just not sure what to look for since a lot of signs can be pregnancy and just from the birth control.
