i want to understand why bc pills contain 21 tablets and the other 28... how will i know which number of tablets is suited for me25 year old woman seeks advice for birth control pills?
Actually 21 pills are all that contain the actual medication. The last 7 in the 28 pack are placebo pills (sugar pills) designed to help you remember to take your birth control everyday.
So either one can be suited for you. but if you like to keep in the habit of taking the pill everyday, than maybe you need to opt for the 28 pack.25 year old woman seeks advice for birth control pills?
Your health care professional can help you with finding the right dosage. Another form of b/c that you may want to consider is the Nuva Ring. You insert the ring into your vagina you leave it in for 28 days and on the 28th day you remove it. After you menstruate you insert the new ring 7days later. It is awesome no worrying about forgetting to take the pill. Most men say they can not feel the ring. However if it is uncomfortable for your partner you can remove it during intercourse and you are still protected. It is a rubber ring that releases hormones like the ones found in oral contraceptives. This is just an idea. I always hated the pill because I would miss doses sometimes.
It may take several months to determine what type of birth control pills are best for you. Let your doctor know your concerns.Your physician will help with your questions.
21 contain hormones, 7 contain iron, this last week (7 days) is when you should get your period. the seven are just to keep the concistency of taking the pills.
the other 7 pills are just sugar to keep you in the habit of taking the pills during your period.
when you talk to your doctor and you tell them you cycle ,they determine if you are 21 or 28 ,im assuming
Differant potency. different drug.
u should visit a doctor before u start taking any of them! the doctor should tell u which type is suiable for ur body!
