Also remember that many antibiotics render the hormones in birth control, including Merina, useless. Whenever antiBs are taken a second form of back up should ALWAYS be used.

OMFG!! I totally forgot about that too... two weeks ago, before this weird period, I was on one that I had never taken before... this is so not good... you know how when you know you know... I feel like that now. I would have told someone about that J *had to spread it J* if it was anyone but myself... lol. I guess I need to remember my own advice.

Edit...

I don't expect my next period till the beginning of January... tail end of dec

Edit again...

I've been losing about a pound a week in the last month too... I'm not doing anything different either.

Hah, that's funny and so true. Every time I have issues with the monthly etc, I sit there and say " ok, now, look at my symptoms, and think of what advice I would give to other people who are having the same thing" hahah.
