pregnant on birth control pills ?
Posted: 07-13-08 10:16am

My last period started on June 11. ON JUne 28, 29 and 30 my normal monthly discharge was pink tinged when I wiped - but nothing in my panties. (I googled and everything I found said maybe implantation bleeding???) I started my placebo pills on July 9.
I was scared and tested on July 10 - negative. I thought good my period will start but as of still no period.

Am I safe to start my new pack on Wednesday even if I have not had a period??

I am having cramps in my back. Lots of severe headaches. I also have nausea and dry heaves - I think from my headaches - I usually puke with pain.

Please advise!!!!!!!!!

how long have you been on the pill and are you good about taking it at the exact same time everyday?

I usually dont get my period until the very last placebo pill and continue my period through 1-2 of the next pack of the active pills...so when does it normally come for you?
I would say go ahead and start your next pack of pills...chances are if you are on birth control AND tested negative you're not pregnant...some pills will make you skip your period all together, its a side effect of yaz many women experience(though I have yet to thank goodness or i'd freak out)

I have been on the same pill Lutera for six month. before that I had been on Loestrin 24 and had trouble with it.
I am good about taking it on time. usually I start by the third placebo pill and will stop by the second or third pill of the new pack.
My periods are lighter when I am on the pill but I have NEVER missed a period!!!!

also i have to take birth control in order to keep my cycle - I have PCOS.
thanks

take another test. HCG levels double every ay if you are pregnant, so test again!
