Since starting these pills I’ve noticed low mood, changes in appetite, tender boobs. Symptoms that are similar to early pregnancy.

Hi, I had my 6 week check today (at 7weeks). The GP advised I try to have sex and wanted a plan for contraception. I hadn’t actually thought about that yet.

So I’m 7+ months postpartum, and only had my period once, 3 months ago. I’m on birth control (nexplanon) so I don’t think it’s pregnancy, but I had menstrual symptoms but no bleeding. What can it be? The arm implant? Or is your body off completely for some time after giving birth?

Hello lovelies! For those that has BV or at times uses things like feminine wash and the boric acid stuff, how often do you use it? I have the feminine wash with boric acid in it.
