I missed one of my pills on saturday, I
realized that when I went to the bathroom
and saw that I was bleeding, so I took the
pill right away, and took the next pill at
the regular time.
It is tuesday and there is still just a
little bit of bleeding.. But its tapering
off. Is it weird that the bleeding has
lasted a couple of days? I skipped the
inactive pills on my last pack to skip my
period for a weekend - the weekend before
I missed the pill. Can that make a
difference?
Is it possible that I could be pregnant?
The last time I had sex was the sunday
before the saturday that I missed the
pill. Almost a whole week.
Will the bleeding stop? Would it be safe
to start having sex again this friday (7
days after my missed pill)? Ive been
taking them regularly since I missed it.
Thanks for the help.

Yes you will stop bleeding and I don't
think you are pregnant. And as for
haveing sex on friday you just mit wan't

But as far as saturday goes - then 8 days,
I should be ok?
If you miss a pill by a few hours I
wouldnt risk having unprotected sex during
the rest of thst pack. What you had was
breakthrough bleeding your hormone level
was disrupted enough for the lining of the
uterus to start shedding.

I would doubt you are pregnant too,
especially since you remembered and took
it at a reasonable time and it was several
days in between... I imagine the bleeding
is from taking the pack of pills back to
back. I did that once on the pill as
well.. And I missed my period when I was
supposed to get it.. But then got it on
the second week of the next pack instead..
Instead of during the inactive pills.
Missing the one pill may have just started
the breakthrough bleeding. I wouldn't
worry about it. Once you get back on
your next pack at a regular interval it
will even itself out.
