A member asked:
I started using a over-the-counter hormone pill and since then my period is in the 3rd week. is this normal or should i stop with the pills.

No OTC hormone pills: There are no otc pills containing hormones, or they would be prescription drugs. Stay away from any otc product that even mentions the word "hormone" because they're all worthless and potentially harmful. Don't treat yourself, or you'll have an idiot for a doctor.
