Question

BirthControl First Week...

I recently started the birth control pill. Day 4 and day 6, so the first week, I had intercourse and he did cum inside me. A week after that I had light spotting. My period was due 10 days ago. I didn't know you weren't protected right away. Could I be pregnant. I have a lot of symptoms. My discharge is so white am I am cramping. Help me please!

Birth control can take up to 3 cycles before your protected. Because of the hormones that are in birth control it can off-set your period start days. Also if you don't take it everyday around the same time it can screw with you cycle. It wouldn't hurt to take a test...

Thank you
I was on the pill for a year and had to get off of it for two weeks because of a screw up w/ the doctors.
So starting over again with the new pack. I do take it maybe 3-4 hours later than I'm suppose to on some days.
It's just scary to know I could be pregnant.

Definitely test. The pill isnt 100%, even when taken properly. I was on it for about 6 months, took it every morning at 7, before work...period never came...8 months later I had a baby boy. The possibility is always there. Hopefully things work out the way that u want.
