vaginapagina | Career/Period Questions (Reply)

First things first: besides the obvious OB/GYN, are there any other careers having to do with women's sexual health out there? I like learning about sex and sharing my knowledge with others, and I was brought up very body-positive. I would really enjoy that sort of career. Any thoughts?

Also, I have a question about the "periods" you get while on the pill. The reason why you bleed is because of the withdrawl of horomones during your placebo week, correct? So theoretically, someone on birth control could not depend on their period to tell them they're not pregnant (disregarding the fact that it's pretty much impossible to get pregnant using your pills correctly.) Hypothetically, if someone missed a couple of pills, then conceived, resumed taking their pills as normal, and had their period in their placebo week like normal, they wouldn't know if they were pregnant? Or will your period stop when you conceive, no matter if you should be bleeding because of the decrease in horomones?

Just something I was thinking about today that I'd like to know the awnser to. I hope you guys followed that!
