Going Off Bc... Posted: 11-21-04 02:49am
Hello,
i recently stopped taking alesse... I
took them for about a year and then had 2
periods.. My last period was in august
and I havent had one since and its the
middle of november ... Ive also gained
weight and been having cramps in my lower
stomache area, I even have developed
stretch marks on my butt .. Im wondering
if this is just normal after stopping the
pill.. Any help would be appreciated ...
Thanks

Have you been sexually active in that
time??If so,are you using an alternative
means of birth control?I think a visit to
the doctor is in order.Usually,you lose
weight when you go off bcp's.It is unusual
to gain-and since you have not had a
period,i would be concerned that you may
be pregnant??!!!Is this possible??Please
see your doc asap to find out.Best to
you.Patty
