Help Please! Pregnant? But On Pill :( Posted: 07-15-05 04:43am
Hi, im 19 years old and have been on the
pill for a month and a half. Im very
confused though as I started the pill in
the middle of the month, two weeks before
my regular period would be due... I just
read on here that if you do that you
should use another form of contraception
for 7 days, but I didnt know this and
didnt do it.
Can you tell me if its possible to get
pregnant because of this, and if I am will
I still bleed during my seven days off the
pill? Also if I take a regular pregnancy
test from a store, will it work or will it
be affected by the hormones in my body as
a result of the contraceptive pill?
I would really appreciate some help!
Thankyou xxx

okay first of all yes you can get
pregnant, even if you use the pill
properly (don't forget days, etc). People
who are pregnant often experiance light
bleeding that can be misstaken for a
period, when it actually is only spotting.
You can take a preg. Test from the
pharmacy (drug store, super market, etc)
and it will not be affected by the
hormones from the hpt (home pregnanct
test).
If it does come out positive you should
make an appointment with a doc as soon as
possible and he will confirm if you are
pregnant or not (either with a blood
sample or a urine sample) if the test
comes out negative wait a week and try
again.
Good luck hun, if you have anymore
questions let me know!
