Discharge, Period, Pregnancy, Infection?
Posted: 08-29-07 20:30pm

Last tuesday (one week before my period) i forgot to take my birth
control that morning before school, so at 3:00 when i came home and
used
the bathroom i noticed a brown discharge. It wasnt very much but it
wasnt normal blood. So i took my birth control that i had forgotten
earlier that morning. For about three or four days after that i
spotted. The spotting varied in color and consistancy from a light
brown to a dark nasty brown with a little red blood. It wasnt very
much
but it did that off and on for those 3 or 4 days.
So i read about it on the internet and so off the symptoms i was
feeling
and the spotting was similiar to the signs of early pregnancy. I got
scared and took a pregnancy test. But i think i took it to early. So
its been about a week and im supposed to start my REAL period in two
days. Today my blood changed to a normal looking blood but its not
very
much blood at a time not enough to use a pad or tampon. So ive been
worrying off and on this past week. Whats wrong with me? Am i
pregnant?
Or is it just my birth control effecting me? i take ortho tri-cyclen
lo.
Please Help ASAP!

Missing one pill does not put you at risk for pregnancy, though it may have caused your spotting.
