My doctor gave me an estrogen only pill. She said it is the most popular pill with everyone but I hate it. I feel bloated and tired and lack any energy to exercise. What do I do?

I just had sex with my boyfriend and he wore a condom. We only realised after that there was a tear in the condom. I don't know what to do as I do not want to get pregnant. Please help.

I am a bisexual female (28) and really hate using condoms. I find them inconvenient and can really kill the mood. I have recently started seeing someone but right now we are in an open relationship. Is there any other form of contraception I can use?

Good morning,

I am so pleased to say my family is complete. We just welcomed our second child (Duke) into the family last month. My wife and I are happy with 2 children. She does not want to go back on hormonal contraception. We are considering a more permanent solution and would like to know what are options we should consider?

Hi everyone,

I am trying my best to support my partner. We have been married for 20 years and throughout that time she has been on the patch. She is tired of having to go to the doctors every few months to get some more. As she has been responsible for so long I was wondering if there is any type of contraception I could use so that she no longer has to go on the patch? We already use condoms so we are looking for an extra layer of protection?

Hi,

I went on the pill thinking that I would not get my periods anymore (it happened to my friend). However the doctor said that I need to take the yasmin pill for 21 days and then stop taking it for 7 days so I can get my period.

My friend does not stop taking her pill. She told me she is on the progesterone-only pill. Why does she not get a 7-day break like me?

Hi everyone,

I have been on the pill for about 3 months but I am really struggling to take the pill everyone day at the same time. Is there anything I can do?

Good afternoon,

I am a female (18) and want to start having sex with my partner (male 20). I am however allergic to latex so cannot use the regular condoms. I am already on birth control but I heard that they do not protect against STI's. How can I make sure I am safe? I know my boyfriend is loyal but we have only been going out for 2 months.

Hi,

I am a 22 year old gay man. I have sex on a frequent basis with my boyfriend so there is no risk of pregnancy. Seeing as we are both in a committed relationship (6 months and counting) do I really need to wear a condom?

Hi,

My girlfriend and I (both 18) have started recently about having sex. Both of us are interested but we are not sure how to protect ourselves from pregnancy? I read online that it doesn't really matter once she is not on day 14 or something? If we keep track of her cycle would this be ok?
