ok well i have kinda of been skipping my pills, and then ill get back on and then skip them again, and im not sexually active, so thats not the issue, but my mom said it can damage my insides, is this true?
also, i just got back on them last night and this morning i had bloody discharge, and it could just be my period but im not sure. so is that normal to get discharge when you start them again? and if it is my period, should i just keep taking the pills in order, or should i take the sugar pills?
please help im really worried :-\

Skipping birth control can't really harm your insides. All that will happen is that they won't serve their purpose: they won't stop you from getting pregnant. Since you're not sexually active though, thats probably not an issue for you.
The discharge is probably just an early period. You may be slightly screwing up your body's clock by taking pills on and off, so yor periods will be out of whack. My advice is the just, from today, start taking the pills in order and don't skip anymore. That should end your problems. You should still talk to your doctor/gyno, to make sure you don't have any serious issues just to be safe. It doesn't seem like you have anything serious to me, though. I hope that this helped and good luck!

I don't know about 'damaging your insides' but there's no point in being on them if you aren't going to take them as prescribed. Perhaps pills aren't the best method for you. Talk to your doctor about an alternative to a daily pill, since you don't seem to remember or desire to take them daily...if you are on the pill for a reason other than b/c there are still likely other options for whatever condition the pill is treating.
As for your discharge it's probably not an issue, but again call your docs office and find out if what you are describing is normal for the type of pill you are on, and the infrequency with which you've been taking them.

well your mother is half right. im sure the pills your taking have some kind of sideaffect so maybe that is one of them. don't taking your pills completely and you'll be fine...remember all pills can do atleast SOME damage if you've been taking them for a long time :-)

if u r not sexually active so why u go for pills hassels? pills have some reflections over periods....so, if u take pills irregularly it will cuase untimed period.......but, its not true that if u take pills in disordered way it will harm ur inside. ur mom may be tried to mean the iregularity of period.
u try to use condoms.....thats better for u.
