Help Please! About Microgynon 30.please Respond.
Posted: 11-20-03 07:43am

I have been on microgynon 30 for 2 weeks now,i started them on the first day of my last period,which lasted for 5 days,i have had none of the side effects and no spotting at all.I have taken them around the same time every day,usually about 7 o clock but sometimes a bit later such as 8.

On tuesday (which was my birthday,i turned eighteen) me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex,3 times.I am not sure if he came or not because I didn't feel anything and he pulled out each time straight away.I am aware that pre-cum could still get in though.

I am just worried because...Was this wise? Could I be pregnant? I happened to miss taking my pill last night,but I took it at 7 o clock this morning,and am going to take my pill at the usual time tonight.(it is now 12.30) I am just worried because I have heard people say that during the first month of using the pill you have to have extra protection such as a condom.Although,my doctor told me only to use a condom in the first week (where I didn't happen to have sex at all) this is the first time i've had sex since being on the pill,and on the packet it says you are fully protected from day 1 as long as you use them properly.Which I have.

What is your advice? Do you think I could be pregnant? Or is it highly unlikely?

I am willing to accept any news good or bad,i am just really confused and in need of help. I have only had sex once before this (when I was not on the pill) and a condom was used and I had my period soon after.So I know that was okay.I'm hoping that this is going to be alright too.I mean,i've had no spotting and no problems at all with the pill.Could this mean that my body is fine with it?

I have one week left before my 7 day break.

Please respond.

Hey tiger lilly
i was on that pill 4 a while as from what I was told,ur protected from the net day after u take the pill.U need 2 b really careful with time-keeping cos u dont want any accidents.Thats the combined pill right? Cos if it is,u ned 2 take it within 12hrs of ur usual time.I recommend u choose a time when u wont 4get like first thing in the morning or last thing at nite.
As 4 the pregnancy thing,im not sure.U wont know if u r or not til ur periods late. I dont think u r pregnant cos u were protected at the time u had sex.Please b more careful! Here 2 talk

Hiya liz,
thank you for your response.
Yeah at the time we were going to use protection,but didn't because for one he didn't have any,and we didn't think it would be a problem as I was on the pill.Yes it is the combined pill,i'm usually really good and on time when taking it,but two days after me and my boyfriend had sex I forgot it,but I did take it within 12 hours,and i'm now back to not-forgetting to take them.
The reason why I panicked over this is cos i've heard people say that in the first month it might not work as your body adjusts to it...
This may be the case,but I haven't had any side effects and have taken to them really well,almost instantly.
I'm hoping that things are okay,and thanks for your reaasurance,i'll see what happens Smile
