    Active Pills?

    Hey ladies, Im almost due to have a period (On the pill)...my question is: Do you have to take all active pills to get a period???
    Its been making me vomit and feel really sick. I probably wont be taking it anymore after this packet.

    Another question is can a OPK be used as a HPT??? I was mucking around with an Ovulation test, and it came back with a clear faint line....

    Hey Hun,

    You shouldnt gat your period while you are still taking the active pills, its once you stop them that your eriod comes. (i used to get my eriod before ending the active ones, thats how DD came about - my pill wasnt strong enough for me! didnt know this at the time).

    Maybe you need to try a different pill, some of them work differently with different people. One i tried years ago made me terrible dizzy.

    HPT's and ov tests each test for different things, so no they cant be used as "one or the other".
