okay so i had sex on tue with my boyfriend and started to bleed. It went away after a few hours but now i have spotting of like brown blood. I never ever get this and i am on the pill. My period was over on sunday. Is spotting a sign of being pregnant? I just got over my period i dont think i am pregnant??? What is going on here??? Thanks.

Hi there... spotting isn't a sign of pregnancy and if you've been taking your pill everyday you should be protected. It can be normal to have some breakthrough bleeding when you take your pill and sex might have brought that on. I know that I use to get that a lot. If it continues to be a problem I'd call your Dr and maybe you can switch your pills, but it shouldn't affect your effectiveness.

I hope this helps
