Stopped aygestin 5 days ago. no bleeding
| Sun, 10-19-2008 - 2:41am |
So I've been on aygestin for awhile. I had to stop two months ago because it was so expensive. within me missing 2 pills I started bleeding (not a "real" period though)
I started a Real period on the 28th, started taking the Aygestin again the next day and the period stopped the next day. My boyfriend came home the day I stopped bleeding & we had unprotected sex, and continued to (not smart I know) because my doctor told me I couldn't get pregnant while on the medicine. My Boobs were Aching, BAD. A week later. I stopped takin the aygestin 5 days ago and I still have no bled, or cramped , which I did last time I stopped.
I'm worried I could be pregnant? Is that possible even though I was on my period two days before?
how much longer should I wait?

Hi there,
Since Aygestin isn't a form of birth control, then yes, you can potentially get pregnant on it. So I strongly suggest you take a pregnancy test. The drug information specifically says that you shouldn't take this if you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant (which lends more weight to the fact that it doesn't prevent pregnancy), because it can cause harm to an unborn baby.
And if you aren't pregnant, then you need to use some form of birth control while taking this drug.
Okay, well that just confirms my thinking that my doctor is an idiot, because I asked him to put me on Birth control. and he said aygestin prevents me from becoming pregnant.
I think it's too early yet. my "real" period isn't due until
