I have been taking birth control pills continuously for treatment of severe endometriosis since having an salpingo-oophrectomy (sp?) 2 years ago. Do you recommend to continuous birth control patients that they take monthly pregnancy tests since there is no outward evidence that a pregnancy does not exist? Is this something that I should not be concerned about given my age and medical condition?
You should know that the product I take is Yasmin 28. I take my pills as instructed at the same time every day and I have never missed a pill.
