I had posted a little over a week ago about having unprotected sex around ovulation...

LMP was the 13th of August. I had unprotected sex (drunk) on the 17th and 25th. I think I ovulated the 25-27. Well on the 28th I began spotting hmm never had happened before. Obviously way to early for implantation bleeding but nonetheless irregular. I freaked out and called my doc and made an appt for wed the 29th. I think that's where I left you....

I went to the clinic where I had a urine and blood test done. Both came out negative. Of course it would be way to early to detect anything anyway. That morning however I woke up and was bleeding. It wasn't as heavy as a period but still dark red blood and needed a small tampon, I was freaking out. Either way I was bleeding way too early for a period. NEVER HAS HAPPENED. I was mildly cramping. Well I called my OB-GYN at home and she said she doesnt think I'm pregnant that maybe it was an early period? However the period stopped 2 days later. But still I did have sex around ovulation, of course though she couldn't examine me because she's in another state. Since then I went on BC. Now my period isn't due for 3 weeks. It would have been due around the 9th but now that I've started BC it shouldn't come. Well a couple days before I started and now I have been sooo soo tired I can't seem to get enough sleep, my boobs KILL me, im irritable constantly and the CRAMPING my God won't go away. The bleeding went back to light brown spotting and now is gone. I don't know what to do. I've been on BC before but never had symptoms like cramping or spotting or sore boobs? The only thing i ever had was nausea. I have another appt. this wed the 5th. HOPEFULLY she will take a blood sample and maybe we can figure out whats going on with my body. Do you think I could be pregnant? I'm very very very confused. Please help. Thanks

when i went on the birth control pill for the first time "and only time so far" i bled for a month straight and it wasn't always light blood. sometimes it was heavy. it was just my body getting used to the hormone levels changing i'm thinking. my boobs hurt alot for months after i got on the pill and they ended up growing some "i think thats why they hurt." they stopped hurting after a while though.
