St. Herb Usage--I may have done it wrong
November 6 2007 at 2:10 AM Dina (no login)
My period started right in the middle of the day and I wasn't expecting it until next week; so I didn't have my pills. I rushed home to take one and have 3 more to take, should I just take one more tonight and then take the full dosage tomorrow?

I've actually been wondering something similar... I think I can help with one part of your question at least!
As far as I understand, the directions for St.herb pills are to take TWO in the morning and TWO at night. So I think that when you went home for your pills, you should have taken two instead of one. Then two more before you go to bed tonight. But some people ramp up with this stuff, so I think that if you miss one pill out of the day it's not going to hurt anything. Just take two before bed tonight. I don't know if you'd want to talk all three! That might make you feel icky. Then tomorrow, if you're not wishing to ramp up, take 2 in the morning and 2 at night. I don't think there should be any problems with doing it that way. And maybe some people DO take one pill 4 times spread throughout the day... Someone else may be able to help you out with that.
What I was wondering, similar to your question, was what if you start your period at night? I tend to do that and was thinking that I obviously wouldn't want to take 4 pills all at once! Or would I? Don't mean to hijack your question... Just asking since it's kind of the same!
Hope I helped you a little! And good luck!

Don't worry. It is not so important to be so precise. Just be more relaxed about all of this. Just beging the course of pills the day of your period. If your period started during the middle of the day then take two pills that evening and two more the next morning and so forth. Don't be so concerned with getting the first days full 4 tablets in.
If your period started at night then just take the first 2 pills in the morning and the 2 two in the following evening. It is important to be relaxed about all of this or the stress you create over the whole business will ultimately cause your period to become irregular too!
Maybe that helps I don' know.
Best to all

Thanks
Now what about prescription antibiotics? If I'm taking the last few, should I wait until I'm done with them and start the regimen again? My next 15 day cycle for pills starts Wed. Or start anyway?

Just go ahead and start on Wed....if that is when you were supposed to start up again. I doubt there is any problem with the antibiotics either but always if you have medical issue is good to talk to a doctor I guess. Good luck.
