Hello Scarleteen, wow I feel weird making a post that isn’t about sex or reproductive health. I wonder if you guys could still possibly help. I had struggled with some stomach issues for the past 2 years, this year I finally got some exams done and one exam showed that my gallbladder was low functio...

Hey Heather, yeah I figured they weren’t super reliable but the part of me that believes in signs from the universe makes me think “oh this is a sign” and I start to experience anxiety (which I am in therapy for) Thank you! I mean it made sense that you wouldn’t bleed if you were pregnancy regardles...

Hello Scarleteen, the other day I was on Tik tok and some girl had made a tik tok basically talking about how she’s on the pill and get her period and she still thinks she’s pregnant. As I was scrolling through the comment section I got a bit uneasy. Many girls were saying “if you’re on the pill you...

Hello Scarleteen once again, I feel like I bother you guys so much but I am appreciative that you guys always respond and are always kind. I made a post last year about going to six flags and leaving my pills in the locker and if they were okay. Well earlier this month on the 4th day of my new pill ...

Hey Sam, yeah every time he told me I was fine and shouldn’t be stressing myself out or even worrying because there hasn’t been anything to worry about (like I haven’t missed my period nor have i gotten a positive pregnancy test when I tested a couple days ago) I feel okay for a little but then my m...

Hey Amanda, I read Heather’s article and she talks about some woman she counseled that she just couldn’t wrap her head around the fact that she wasn’t pregnant but that because having sex before marriages is shamed upon the only punishment is to be pregnant and I feel exactly like that. I just think...

Hey scarleteen. So about 17 days ago I had sex with my boyfriend and I was as cautious as I could be. I have been on the pill for 7 months, He wears condoms and pulls out (he always holds the base of the condom too to make sure it doesn't slip off), and this last time I even took a plan b because I ...

Hey Scarleteen, So last Tuesday (5/26) I was supposed to start my new pill pack. Instead, I inserted the Nuvaring at 10 am because I had the sample my doctor gave me from November. Later that night at 11:20 I actually read the back of the sample package and it said the ring should be stored for only...

Hey Scarleteen, I went to my gynecologist and we discussed birth control options and she recommended me trying the nuvaring. My doctor gave me 2 months samples and said that if I liked it to call her so she can prescribe more. I have questions now that I didn’t have them so I would like to get some ...

Hey Scarleteen, I am on the pill and have been on it since January. However, in June I went to six flags and left my pills in a locker for 3 hours because I didn’t want to leave them in the car or take them with me, this happened the 19th of June. I had sex on Wednesday the 26th, the first day of th...

Hey There! So I lost my pill packet a week or so into it last month and i started using another one that I had that was a different brand and had 7 placebo pills instead of 4 (the one I take has 4 placebo days). They are both combination pills but the one i take is called Nikki and the one I took wh...

Thank you! I was doing the reading on the articles and that’s always what I’ve heard to be true. I want to bring this to the group and tell her that it wasn’t correct information but I don’t want her to get mad cause she has a nursing degree and “knows more” than I do... I just don’t like the incorr...

Hey Scarleteen, Yesterday I was hanging out with the ladies of my church youth group and one of the leaders is a 35 year old who works as a nurse. Me and some of the other girls were just sitting down talking about the reproductive system, sex and pregnancy. She stated that every month two eggs are ...

Hey Scarleteen, I bought some Encare contraceptive inserts last month and i barely used one today. I didn’t think to check the expiration date because I had barely bought them last month but my bf checked it. They had expired 08/18!!!! Fortunately we double up on protection so he wore a condom and I...

Hey Scarleteen, I just have a quick question. My bf and I had sex and we used a condom but said condom had been in the car’s glove compartment for several months but I checked and everything was intact so we used it. Afterwards I checked the condom and like I blew into it and no air escaped and no l...

Hi Chloe thanks for the response! I'm still a little confused about the time frame. So I took it the night before at 11pm on Tuesday and then Wednesday night I didn't take it until Thursday morning at like 8am. Is that just considered late or entirely missed? Sorry just a bit confused. Also yeah the...

Hey Sam thnaks for replying. I continued to take the pill and when I got my refill I got Nikki instead of Loryna and when i started taking it i stopped getting nasty brown stuff and stopped bleeding! But i have another question. I started on June 22nd the pack of Loryna and during the 1st week of Ju...

Hey Scarleteen, So I started birth control again in April and they started me on one called Nikki and so I took it and I got my withdrawal bleeding the last week of pills and then I stopped taking it in May because I planned on not being sexually active. Well I got two regular period but they hurt s...

Hey Scarleteen, okay so Thanks to you guys I can say I have safer sex! I always try my best to fall in the perfect use of things and double up on BC. I had sex on March 11th and my bf and I used a condom AND the withdrawal method and I'm pretty sure we fall in the perfect use of method because he pu...

Hi Scarleteen, is it okay for a guy to finish inside of a girl if he has a condom on? (Asking for a friend)

Hi thank you for replying! Yeah I did start on birth control a couple days ago but I've been hanging around the crazy internet ladies who talk about their birth control methods failing and maybe I'm just not entirely ready to be engaging in activity that could lead to pregnancies? My anxiety is thro...

Okay hey scarleteen, I wanted to talk about condoms. I have such a hard time trusting them even when my boyfriend and I used them correctly and when we get done we always check for any leaks or holes or breaks and tears and we always use a new condom if we go more than once but yet after sex I get u...

Hey There, so I just got a call from my gyno and they told me all the testing they did came back negative!!!! Praise the Lord!!! Also, the prescribed me something for the symptoms to hopefully clear up in 7 days!!

She told me it was normal and then checked my urine and me and said nothing looked abnormal. She then swabbed me and that was it. I went twice for this problem and the second time is when they tested me and she actually took a look around better than the first time. She said "it could've been f...
