pregant while taking bcp?
| Sun, 05-06-2007 - 11:44pm |
Hi,
I have been taking estrostep as birth control for four years and it has always worked well- no spotting, no missing, nothing unusual. I take it the same time every day also. I was supposed to get my period on 4/23 but didn't get anything, which is unusual because I usually have a very heavy cycle. On 4/29 I got really light spotting once. I took an at home pregnancy test on 4/25 and it said negative. Should I take another one again? Has anyone else here had the experience of getting pregnant while taking the bcp? Should I be worried that I might be pregnant or am I overly concerned?

My mom was on bcp when each of my brothers were concieved. It is possible test again and if af still no show call dr.

I recently found out I was pregnant and I took my pills religiously, so it's definitely possible. I experienced spotting before I was due for my period, though.
At any rate, I'd test again.
