follicles and birth control
Yesterday I was seen at the hospital for stomach pain. It was explained to me that both of my overies had created a follicle that then burst as they do during ovulation. Due the increased hormones it can cause more pain than normal. My auestio is, I'm in birth control but just started two months ago and over the past few months I missedseveral pills. If a follicle completes the full cycle does that means there is an egg inside it?

This egg when released is ready for a sperm to join it and create a baby.
If you are on birth control, and its the daily pill, all I can say is what the Drs say...that the pill must be taken daily and best at same time of day also. If you have trouble remembering, try setting the alarm on your iphone to go off same time each day to remind you. Missed pills can result in a pregnancy.
The pain you felt of the releasing of the egg is a common one which I felt most times too. However the pain wasn't extreme and didnt last long. If you ever have extreme pain again and or heavier bleeding than normal, those are signs to see Dr. ASAP, something my GYB. drilled into me.
