I really don't think you should worry. Going on/coming off the contraceptive pill is well known to f*ck around with your hormones and mess up your menstrual cycle. I can't think of anything which could actually be wrong with you other than maybe PCOS which is sometimes supressed by taking the pill, and causes irregular/no periods. I personally think as it's only been a couple of months you shouldn't worry.
apologies now as this is going to sounds sick, even by my standards but...
ugh. i feel... swollen & finding out about this was rather uncomfortable
i know mam had the same swelling thing a while ago but... i can't ask her about it, i might even be imagining it, but :/ weird... can't even tell if it's just because of the monthly as i can;t remember when my last was & it just comes & goes as it wants anyway, might just be that though
And so I don't feel it is wrong to ask - has anyone had any problems with yeast infections? Something has happened to me recently, I think it's the stress, and I'm just having a terrible problem with it. 3 months and 2 doctors trips and practically no let up

Is it defo thrush? can you not just use Canesten?
Yes, I had a test. And I have used that stuff about 7 times since July. It works but it comes back a week later. I'm on some prescription drugs now - but after the course is done I wouldn't be surprised if it came back. It seems I woke up one day and was suddenly prone. It did start around the time I broke up with my boyfriend/moved house/got busier at uni/started drinking more coffee/smoking more (though I've knocked those on the head now).
thrush happens when the pH of your fanny gets disturbed, so check what you're using in the bath or shower, laundry detergent, anything else you might be putting up/near your foof, etc.
not that people powder their vaginas with persil, just sayin'.
It's just one, sorta like achey unless I touch it in which case it's like it's bruised. Always the same one too. Was worried I'd be ironic (having small tits) and get breast cancer but apparently breast cancer is painless so I feel better now.
I had that problem a couple of years ago (age 21).. my boobs hurt for a good few weeks. Turned out they were just growing!!! Boo yeah! (boob yeah?). Went up a cup size.
Claire I don't want to worry you but I too was told "cancer isn't painful" when I complained of testicular agony and we know how that turned out He put me on anti-biotics for a fortnight GPs are bloody useless, you need to get him/her to refer you to a proper doctor. It's probably nothing, but better safe than sorry and all that.
I just got away with testicle talk in the wimminz thread
only 2 weeks. I finally got around to reading the "read this before taking any pills" leaflet, and it said that it can take months before the spots go away
A couple of days ago I had a spot on my boob. It was so big and so much puss came out, it was as though I'd sprouted and extra nipple and it was lactating.
ohmy!
i was on microgynon for a few months when i was 16, it made my skin gorgeous for the brief period i was on it before it started making me throw up every morning like i was pregnant.
should prolly be trying that again for i am a pizza face, but eh.
if you don't have any problems with dry or peeling skin then products with retinol in can prolly help if you don't want to wait for a dermatologist.
I only just found out about these contraceptive implants. Ohmygod. They last for 3 years! But they're big things under your skin you can FEEL. Ewwwwwwwwwww.
