A member asked:
I started birth control a week ago i used the quick start method, i'm stopping birth control after 7 days. what might be the side effects?

Not sure but you may: have some rebound bleeding, and your hormone cycle /menstruation may get restarted or knocked off for a few months. Irregular bleeding is the most likely side effect. Recommend for you to find an alternate method of contraception, or talk to your GYN or family physician about trying another brand instead. Or implantable devices or IUD.
