I take my pills at night and forgot to
take it Friday, so Saturday night i took
two. Then sunday me and my boyfriend had
sex and he DID ejaculate inside of me.
Should i worry?
Any help would be appreciated...

Nope. You did exactly what you were
supposed to do, so you should be
protected. As long as that was the only
pill you missed.

I did the same thing but not sure why this
happend.. ok i went on vacation and took
the pill every day but when i got home
everything was insane and alittle
stressful so i ended up missing that day
and the next but the night i got back.. i
went and saw my bf we had sex and like i
said that night and then next i forgot the
pill so i took them on that monday well
the next day i started bleeding just
alittle and cramping bad like someone was
beating my lower stomach and i'm still
bleeding.. Should i be worried?

First of all, if you miss two pills in a
week then you are supposed to use back up
protection (condoms, whatever) for a week
once you get back on track.
Anyway, so you missed the day you got back
and the next day. How did you catch up?
The day after, did you take three?
Ideally, you should've taken two one day
and two the next and used back up
protection for the next week. (I think,
check your packaging to be sure). You
shouldn't take more than two in a day.
Either way, if you missed two pills and
didn't use back up protection you are at
risk for pregnancy. However, your cramping
and bleeding could definitely be caused
by missing the pills and/or taking more
than you are supposed to later. When I am
even a little late taking my pill I
usually end up bleeding a little, it is
really common if you miss pills to bleed.
That's why we get our periods on that week
off! And that would explain the cramping
as well.
But you should probably test if you miss
your period. The cramping and bleeding
does not mean you're pregnant, but since
you missed two pills you should test to be
sure.

actually i did just that took 2 pills one
day then 2 the next. its probably cause i
missed them. we did use condoms.. i think
part of it is also stress.. been under
alot lately.. but eh i'm not really
worried about pregnancy i just started
this one.. Lutera and it doesnt seem to be
helping me.. never had any of these
problems when i was on alesse i know its
just a generic type but.. the side effect
on it are messing me up too..

Well, even if you took two the one day and
two the next (good job!) you are still at
risk for pregnancy unless you used a
condom. (Unless your instructions say
differently).
But like you said, it could be the
stress, it could just be a side effect of
taking the pills the way you did.
