Yasmine I took it for four days it was
making me sick so I stopped. I had a

pregnant?

If you had sex during this time, then of
course you could be pregnant. You were not
on the pill long enough to be protected.
However, bleeding is usually a sign you're
not pregnant. Seems a lot
of girls get a messed up period after
stopping birth control when they shouldn't
and automatically think they're pregnant.
It can take up to three months
to adjust to birth control. Four days
wasn't long enough. You stopped it
incorrectly so of course you're going to
have wacky bleeding.
If you were nauseous, you should have
changed when you took the pill.
Some women get sick if they take it at
night, and some get sick if they take it
in the morning.

If you had unprotected sex (as in, no
condoms or anything), yes you could be
pregnant because pills aren't effective at
all if you only take them for four days.
Pills take seven days to be effective.
You should generally wait longer (like a
few months) for side effects to clear up
before you give up on a pill. Unless they
are really severe, I guess.
Of course, your lengthened period (or
light period or whatever you had) could be
due to taking the pills for such a short
time and then stopping. You should take a
test if you think you might be pregnant.
