Dear readers,
I'd like to share my story if that's okay... I'm actually quite nervous.
First of all, I've been taking the pill very neatly for over 2 years now, until almost 3 weeks ago.
On the 5th day of my pack. I forgot a pill on Saturday night. I only realized this the following night. I then took the missed pill + the one I had forgotten. The next day I called the GP and asked for advice. That same day I went to the pharmacy to get an emergency contraceptive pill (MAP). Now comes the (not so) nice part. Since I have trouble swallowing pills. I cut the MAP pill in half. So to take 2 halves. One half ended up in my stomach. The other in the toilet. Oh (less pleasant) I thought. But we still had unprotected sex every week. And now suddenly very vivid dreams, hot flashes, and nausea with waves, not being able to go to the toilet. I also feel like something else is wrong with me. And now I'm really worried. (sorry).
Does anyone have an opinion or advice on this rather complicated story? Am I right to be worried?
Thank you for your time.

Hi Nin,
It's always tough to judge situations like this. Every body is different, etc., and usually, the only thing that truly brings peace is taking a test when it's necessary. The vivid dreams, hot flashes, and digestive issues can also be fueled by the stress you're experiencing in this situation. I wish you lots of strength. Keep us updated on how things turn out? -

Hi Iza,
thanks for your reply. I took the last pill yesterday. Just bought two Etos tests, now waiting until Saturday morning.
I'll let you know.
