Lo/ovral
Posted: 07-11-05 16:56pm

Hey everyone. A couple of you may remember my previous post labeled "possible pregnancy". I am following up to ask you a couple more questions. The pills she took were call lo/ovral I believe. She did the procedure of taking 4 immediately, 4 12 hours later, and then she chose to continue taking 1 per day until the pack ran out. She is now on the pink pills which I know are suppose to be the ones you take when having your period. Like I said before, she's an athlete and doesn't get her period every month. However, she has been on the pink pills for a few days now with no signs of her period. It's been 2.5 weeks since the night we had sex. Now here are my questions:

do the pills force her to have her period while on the pink pills, or could she still have her period anytime in the future? Secondly, if she is pregnant, would she feel any morning sickness while on the pills? And lastly, I read that lo/ovral will give a positive result on a hpt. Since the pink pills are basically placebos, if she took a hpt while still on those pills, could we get a true result? Thank you so much everyone, you all have been great!

If she's not menstruating she could be pregnant or skipping a period. The withdrawal of progesterone should cause menstruation, unless a pregnancy is producing that progesterone or she's amenorrheic due to other reasons (athletes with low body fat)
