i have a few questions for you gals.

i always get nasty nasty toilet paper-remnants stuck in my labia and around my clit. it's like lint that gets clumped together, almost. not huge chunks. it doesnt have to do with the hair, because its pretty darn short down there. i just don't know what to do about this. are there any specific kinds of toilet paper that will stop this? it's awful, i hate it so much.

second: i'm on birth control (ortho), and im also taking antibiotics for a sinus infection. i just got my period last week... my mom told me that antibiotics interfere w/BC's effectiveness. i just wnated to know if it would interfere for a length of time after i stop taking the antibiotics? because i dont want to get pregnant. yikes! oh yeah, also, i'm still bleeding a very very little bit, and this never happens (my period should have ended on sunday). is this because of the antibiotics, or is there something wrong?

thanks! :D

yes antibiotics do interfere with BC... scary. when i worked at the women's clinic they would alway recommend using BC with an alternative, ie, condoms, etc... for at least one full cycle of pills... that's just what was recommended...

i would recommend a non-linty toliet paper to solve your problem. the quilted one's are notoriously bad about leaving bits.

be really careful about bc/antibiotics. my friend just had a bad scare because of them. good luck.
