Hi I have a question ok I last posted and told u about some of my symptoms. Well it's been 8 days now and I still get them. When I am hungry I get very light headed,i get nausious,heart burn,headaches,and I have lots of discharge. I am on the patch only been on it since may 16(when I started it). My patch off week was june 6-june 13. I didn't start my period until june 10 and had it until the 13th, but it was light. I know people say well when u start a birth control u might feel like that. But I was on depo from june9,2003-may 10,2004 I started the patch may 16,2004. On depo I never had any of these symptoms only bleeding ,bleeding,bleeding. That's why I got off of the shot. And when I was on the pill nov 6,2001-aug 3,2002 I never felt like this eigther. I just dont really know what to think. I am just so sick off all these symptoms. Does it sound like pregnancy or no? Please help me out thanks.

Patch Or Prego?
Not necessarilly. You can have different symptoms when ever you start a new product, while your body gets used to it. I've been on a couple of different pills over the years and I always have like a three month adjustment period to figure out if it's goofing me up or it straightens out.
If you think you're prego, don't wait too long to get seen by a doctor.
It's hard to tell between period symptoms and pregnancy symptoms though.
Take a test when it's been long enough, or better yet, go to your doctor if you're really concerned... Maybe the patch isn't for you.

Good luck
