Re: Birth control & IBS       06/04/09 02:37 PM Edit Reply Quote Lisa Marie Reged: 07/17/06 Posts: 1566 Loc: Lakewood, CO If you're on birth control pills, what you're having isn't really a period, so it doesn't really mean anything. A "period" occurs after you ovulate if your egg isn't fertilized. When you're on the pill, you aren't ovulating, so you're not really having a period. You're just having withdrawal bleeding because you're not taking any hormones that week. Confusing, I know... -------------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lisa, IBS-C (Vegan) Stable since July 2007!
