Pregnant on the pill?
| Mon, 11-03-2003 - 12:32pm |
HI Everyone, I had a question for those who know about the pill. I have read that if you miss a pill it can make you ovulate. Well my problem is I missed 2 pills and had sex those two days and the next day also. Well when I realized my mistake I took two pills that day (3rd day). However I had already started spotting which then became heavy spotting. So I stopped taking the rest of my pills because I only had 2 pills left anyway before my sugar pills started. My question is what are my chances of being pregnant if any? I have been spotting for 5 days now. Do you think I need to test for pregnancy? If so how many days should I wait because they say to wait so many days after ovualation but I do not know when I ovulated!! Please help!!

I Think i'm in the same boat as you...and it's rockin....I don't know much about the pill, but yes I do know that if you miss a pill it could make you ovulate....but that's not what happened to me, lately well the past few weeks I've been taking my pill at different times, ranging any where from 5 to mid night, and I dont know if that is as bad as missing a pill or just the same, but I have had symptoms like your's...I started out with bloating and light headed, my stomach would talk so much I thought it was going to eat me from the inside out.....and than I started eating like crazy, and finally my period...oh yes that...It was supposed to start Friday morning, all I go all Friday was light spotting....so we tested, negative.....and the next day it started heavyer, but than now it's light again, I only fille dup two tampons instead of about 7 which isn't normal, my cycle is 28 day's, and I only have my AF for 4 day's, so it started spotting Firday, got a little heavyer Saturday, slowed down Saturday night Sunday morning, and Sunday around 3ish filled another tampon and now there's hardly anything...you're heavy spotting was it like your period, well not really like you're period, but did you think it was starting and all the sudden it stopped or slowed down to pretty much nothing?? I don't know what's going on...things could be really messed up cause a few months ago I had a UTI and I took antibiotics which can cause the pill to fail, and I went to the doctor the middle or OCtober for a back injury at work and go tested again for a UTI and got some more antibiotics...things have just been really ir-regular lately and I'm kinda worried...well not worried, I'd be more than happy if I were pregnant, and I'll be happy for you and wish you good luck, you'll have to tell me what you find out, I'll keep you up-dated, sorry if I didn't help you much, It's just you're the only other person that's having the same thing happen....I don't know when to test cause yes you're supposed to wait I guess 15 day's after you ovulate, but I don't know when the last time was for me either..???

you said you'd bled when you were pregnant while still taking the pill, do you mean, or did you firgure it out when you're period was supposed to start and it started and it just continued after you were supposed to stop? Or did it just happen like in the middle of your next package of pills??
