I stopped having periods in June of 2006, and took birth control for the past three months. They worked but this month was the first month after I stopped taking the pill. I was supposed to have started yesterday, but nothing is happening. I think I was undergoing "spotting" around the 21st to the 24th. My doctor had informed me of the benefit of calcium before I started taking the pill, so I've been drinking a lot of milk lately. Today in my cereal, I had a TON of skim milk and now I'm feeling kind of guilty since I don't want to gain weight but I want to be sure to give my body as much chance as I can to function properly. Should I be so worried about my calcium intake? Do you think I can kind of let go of that worry now? I have dairy at every meal anyway, but I don't think I will today because I drank so much this morning and I'm also conscious about my weight.

What your eat & the medication you take is expressed in mother's milk.
There aren't any conclusive studies available on the affects of botox in mother's milk.
"There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of BOTOX® in pregnant women. Because animal reproductive studies are not always predictive of human response, BOTOX® should be administered during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus… Additionally, it's not known whether BOTOX® is excreted in human breast milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when BOTOX® is administered to a nursing woman."

Just relax. If you are worrying that could be the reason why your period hasn't shown up yet. Drink milk when you want to, it seems you are getting plenty of calcium. Good luck with this as I know it can be a bothersome worry!

Milk is a very good habit to get into. Every woman should watch their intake of calcium because we lose it as we get older. Milk has also been proven to help you maintain and lose weight. It does not hinder weight loss as long as you drink skim and low fat products.
