I am on birth control, kariva, and I am sexually active, I had sex the day before I was back on the regular pills-real ones, so I was still kind of on my period. I am now experiencing some dark bleeding-only when going to the bathroom-and i'm not sure what it is from. Could I be pregnant? I am now one wek away from being on the fake pills, so I am not sure whether it is because of that or not.

That's what I take....I doubt you are pregnant, but you can ask your doctor to check ya out. I've been taking them for about 2 years right before I got married. It took my body a while to get used to them...I experienced some bleeding before I was supposed to get my period and it eventually evened out. Your body might just be getting used to it. Also, if you miss a day of a pill, and take 2 the next day to "make up" like the packet tells you to, you can bleed then too. I missed before and almost every time I do I bleed but not alot. If it's worrying you, you should see the doctor.

Take It From Someone Who Knows!
That is kinda normal when your on birth control because of your hormones. When your on the pills it has diffrent effects ton people but when I was on birth control mine done the same thing but just wait until you stop bleeding and get a pregnacy test but I wouldnt worry about it.
