Am I pregnant... please help
| Mon, 06-19-2006 - 5:44pm |
I missed my last active pill my previous pack of birth control. I did not realize this until four days later, when I was on my period, so I didn't take it. I had sex after the missed pill. What are my chances of being pregnant? Also, I had a small amount of what looks like implantation bleeding after my period had stopped.

When missing pills require back up method it is for 7 days. But if I am understanding this correctly, you missed the last pill, got your period and had unprotected sex all before you were to start your next package? Is that right? If that is correct, I don't see how you could have ovulated after having a period just a day or two before. So, I really don't see how you could be pregnant. Is is possible that the slight bleeding occured after sex? I know, I know that is really personal of me to ask, but it has happend to me and I also thought it was implantion bleeding - and I had NEVER bled after sex before. But that was all it was in my case.
If you are really concerned, though you can take a pregnancy test. But it is likely too early to pick up the hormones yet. Early symptoms would be tingling or sensitive nipples, sore breasts, light headedness, morning sickness to name a few. But your mind can really play tricks on you when you are overly worried about this. You suddenly feel like everything thing you feel was a symptom!
Good luck and let us know what you find out. You could also call your Dr. or pharmisist.
