Are these signs of pregnancy?

Hi, I'm a 22 year old female and I have been on birth control for 6 months. My periods have been out of wack since I have started taking the pill. I have had 2 periods in the last month, which were two weeks apart, but there was bleeding and then I had the brown or old blood too and I'm not sure if that could be implantatin bleeding. In the last month I have had diarrhea, frequent urination and some slight cramps. My boyfriend is my first partner and didn't know if that had anything to do with it. Should I take a pregnancy test or see my doctor? I'm really confused and could use anyones advice. Thank you so much!

If I were you, I'd see your Dr. You could be having break-through bleeding from the pill. If you haven't missed any of your pills it's very unlikely you are pregnant. You may need a different type of pill to straighten things up. My sister had to try three different types of BC before she found one that worked best for her.

Hi, I too have been on BC for 6 months and I'm experiencing the same thing as you are. I talked to my doctor she said most likely I had an infection and a reaction to the pill. She told me to finish out this pack of pills and if it was still happening to come in for test and possibly change of pills. But that is me, if I was you I would talk to your doc over us.
