Answer
Hi Caitlinnnnn,
Thanks for your question. I'm not a medical doctor so please ask a medical professional or physician. I hope you are feeling better. I'm worried and I hope you will email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know how you are. Or send me a follow-up question. I would recommend that you not be on birth control pills. Do you have a reason? Please let me know. Also, if you do decide to go off the pills, your cycle should straighten out in a few weeks or months.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
