Another Problem.... Was I Pregnant? Posted: 04-26-06 19:45pm
Me again.... With my never ending
problems.
So about a month ago a started on the
pill, diane-35. I went on it to clear my
skin up. Before I started taking the pill
I had missed a period and was supposed to
be coming up to another one, I thought. I
got impatient and wanted my skin to clear
up asap and figured because I wasnt using
it for contraception, that I could start
taking it whenever.
So I took the pill for a whole month and
finished taking it when the packet stopped
as it made my skin a lot worse. So by now
its been about 3 months since I have had a
period.
Before I started the pill, I took a
pregnancy test due to my late period,
which turned out.
Yesterday, about a week after I stopped
taking active pills, I had spotting. It
was very light. I only had slight cramps
for most of the day.
This morning I woke up in excrutiating
pain and could hardly move. All of my
lower stomach and back was so cramped and
just very painful. I also found it
painful to walk. I got up and took
nurofen plus which made the pain go away
completely. So I thought it was just a
heavy period after missing a few. After I
had a shower, I was just standing there
and I felt something being pushed out of
my vagina!!!!....
And then this big clump of tissue fell
onto the floor. It was quite big and
clumpy. It was all one big connected
thing of tissue. It ranged from a dark
dark red, to a white colour... To purple.
I have no idea what this is!!!
Did I have a miscarriage or was this just
built up membrane or something?
Please help

Hmmmmmm sounds to big to be a fetus from
the timescale you describe.
At 8 weeks of pregnancy the fetus is about
3cm long.
The pill doesn't cause miscarriage.
1-2% of all womens using the pill
correctly will become pregnant anyway.
The does of hormones in the pill is not
high enough to cause a miscarriage, they
need to be taken in a much higher dose to
be used as a morning after pill.

Well if I was pregnant.... I would have
been 8 weeks along.
So since then I have just been having very
heavy bleeding. No pain.
This tissue or membrane, whatever it was,
was more then 3 cm in diameter if you
flattened it out.... Soi dont know what
that means, it wasnt too much bigger

Well, I don't know if you were pregnant or
not, but I do have this question. In
your other thread you said that you've
never been to a gyno so no doctor has seen
your vagina. If you're on the pill,
you're given a pap test and a pregnancy
test. So which is it? Have you seen a
gyno or haven't you?

I didnt go to a gyno, I just went to an
everyday doctor. I was expected him to do
an internal check and all.... But he
never did, he just gave me a prescription.
I told him I was sexually active, and he
still didnt do a check, which I thought
was weird.

A lot of doctors these days give out
prescriptions with taking precautions and
doing necessary tests, and I dont agree
with that.... But thats not really the
problem here.
