She's on birth control pills while in Japan. Apparently the pills are stored in a square container instead of a circle like she's used to here. Well she accidentally took the pills in reverse order from her last period 10 days ago.

I told her not to worry about it and just start taking them in the correct order from 10th pill but she's still worried about her body and the hormone imbalance (she's not having sex so pregnancy isn't an issue).

Anyway, I seriously doubt it will harm her body in any way, just make her cycle a few days off at worst.

Why is she talking birth control pills if she's not at risk for getting preggers?

She's crying because she's in Japan and worried that you won't like little Pak Yong 9 months from now.

because going on and off of them repeatedly is a pain that screws up women's menstrual cycles.

There is a technique where you can skip the placebo pills to avoid having a period. Not sure if any doctors reccomend it.

Yes, when they prescribe it it's often under a different brand (such as 'Seasonal' (typically one period every 3 months)) however the pills are basically the same.

Wow, seriously. Are you guys really that dense?




She's not having sex currently but she will be once I visit in a month, though that's not why she's on the pill

To regulate an irregular period so she knows pretty much exactly when she will have her next period.

She should stop taking them completely until the 1st Sunday after her next period begins. At that time she should start a brand new cycle and her body will adjust. She may get her period off-time, but she will be just fine.
