Brief Answer:
no need to go back to the pills

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply

1. The symptoms you are experiencing are called premenstrual symptoms.

2. These premenstrual symptoms mean you are about to get your menstrual cycles as your last cycle was on 27 th October.

3. If you don't get periods by next one week you can get checked with your doctor for endometriosis by getting ultrasound scan done.

4. There is no need to go back on BC pills unless you want contraceptive cover.
