Necon 1/35 - is period light and short or am I pregnant Posted: 11-06-07 16:06pm
ok so a few months ago i started my period
and it was still going three months later
so i went to the doctor. they put me on
the pill and ive been on three or 4 since
then due to the fact that they either
didnt work or did work and then id just
start bleeding and not stop. ive been on
necon 1/35 for my first month last month
everything was fine. i got to the reminder
pills and i had my period ...kinda..it was
like two to three days at the most and it
was only red like one day not heavy either
but it was there. i spotted for the three
or so days after. ive taken two negative
pregnancy tests. could i be pregnant or is
the pill just that strong to where my
period is that light and short because
never in my life have i had one that light
or short and its kinda scary especially
since im very sexually active. i use
condoms everytime. someone please help im
confused and starting to get scared.
ps. when i first started on these pills it
took about two weeks for them to start
working and an the condom did slip back
one time so i was worried about something
happening so i went to planned parenthood
and got plan B an took it that day and the
doctor had me restart my pills with a new
pack a week and a half into my pack. can
this be a factor in my problem? or should
i still be worried?
Id really appreciate any advice i can get.
thanks.

It is very common for your periods to be
shorter and lighter or go away completely
while on the pill. That is actually one of
the most desireable side effects.

well...i kinda use my period as a way to
make sure that im not pregnant. i have
alot of friends whos parents were using
multiple forms of birth control and they
got pregnant thats why im worrying. one of
my friends said she didnt find out till
she was 4 months and she had to have a
blood test and she mentioned something
about how not everyones body chemicals
work right with pregnancy tests sometimes
u have to do it by bloodtests. if its just
a a effect from the pill ..wat would make
it cause for concern that i could be
pregnant??
