Freaking Out. Somone Please Help Me... Posted: 10-30-05 10:57am
Hi everyone
here it is:
on my first week on my birthcontrol pack
(i'm taking estrostep by the way), I
missed one pill. I took it as soon as I
remembered, which was more than 12 hours
later, and took the next one at it's
regular time. The next day I bled and I
am still bleeding (it has now been 5 days
of bleeding). The bleeding is not heavy
and it is more of a brown color. I had
sex 2 days before I missed the pill but
have had no sex after the missed pill.
My questions are:
could I be pregnant?
Am I bleeding from the one missed pill?
Does bleeding from one missed pill lasts
so long?
Will I get my regular period still (which
is due a week and a half from now)?
Should I get a pregnancy test?
Please help...This is my first time
missing a pill ever.
Please...

If you actually released and egg while off
of the pill(for the 12 hours) you could
def. Be preg. For the sperm can live 5
days in the womans body

Take a pregnancy test to make sure.
When should your regular period be due?

My period is due 1 1/2 weeks from now
(nov.11)
i forgot to mention that when I had sex 2
days before the missing pill, my partner
used a condom. I hope that makes a
difference somewhat.
How long does bleeding occur if you miss
one pill?
How long does bleeding occur for that
'internal lining' if you're supposedly
pregnant?
Thank you all for responding. Thank u,
thank u =]

Dont worry at all there is a very slim
chance of you being pregnant considering
that your partner used a condom.
The fact you missed a pill probably
trigerd your bodys natural reaction what
you have now is probably your period
continue taking the pill as if you just
had your period. Remember also that
stress could cause a similar reaction.
For your own peace of mind take a
pregnancy test!
