A patient at increased risk for thromboembolic disorders will begin taking a progestin-only oral contraceptive. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of how this oral contraceptive works

The options of the question are :

"I will need to use backup contraception if I miss a pill."

"Irregular bleeding is an indication that I should stop using this drug."

"The mini-pill is safer than combination OCs and is just as effective."

"The progestin-only mini-pill will prevent me from ovulating."

Option A

Explanation:

When a patient is taking a progestin- only pill then it should be taken for at least 2 days in order for the backup.

Most of the women stop taking pills because of inconvenience cause due to irregular bleeding.

But the intake of oral pills should not be stopped and should be taken for avoiding the pregnancy.

The irregular bleeding is not an indication to stop taking medicine so it should be continued as such.

you may having too much sleep.. a good night sleep consists of about 7 hours. more than that could be the reason you're still tired throughout the day.

if your boyfriend is cheating on you, my best advice to you is to dump him, he's only going to drag you down. and if you do, don't fret there's plenty better that know how to treat a person right. i mean honestly, the whole point of a romantic relationship is love, and if you love someone you aren't going to cheat on them. i do believe in second chances, but why would he cheat in the first place? i personally feel that if someone cheats, they ruin any chance they wanted/had with you. i wish you the best of luck with this, hang in there.
