Missed Pills, Unprotected Sex Posted: 06-27-06 22:59pm
I got my period on wednesday june 7th and
it last 5 days. I started my pack of
pills on sunday june 11th and took them
regularly then I missed pills on june 18th
and 19th. I took two on the 20th but
stopped taking them since. I've had
unprotected sex a couple days after and
before the missed pills. On wednesday
june 21st I got my period(so I think)
maybe its just spotting. It's lighter
than my usual period but I still need to
change my tampon every 4 hours or so. But
i've had some cramping everyday and my
breasts are very tender.(maybe thats just
because of the pill) it is now the 27th
and the bleeding hasnt gone away (usually
my period only lasts 5 days thats why I
dont think I have my period now..Just
breakthrough bleeding I guess?) my actual
period is due july 5th. What are the
chances that i'm pregnant? The only
symptoms i've really had is breast
tenderness. But is there a chance I may
get or have gotten pregnant

Ordinarily I would say that one or even
two missed pills probably isn't enough to
make you ovulate, but since you haven't
been taking your pills since the 20th (how
come?), there's an increased chance you
are pregnant. Of course, you may just be
having pre-menstrual symptoms right now,
which would explain the sore breasts. A
reason you may be experiencing
breakthrough bleeding is the way you
abruptly stopped taking your pills... So
it wasn't a period you were having on the
21st. That would be impossible anyway,
since yours ended on the 12th. If you
aren't looking to get pregnant, use a
condom until you're expected to get your
period. As always, if you're late, take
a pregnancy test.

You've managed to mess up your cycle with
missing pills and then stopping them
before your pack was over. Youre breasts
hurt because of the hormones .You are not
pregnant since your still having
breakthrough bleeding that means you
havent ovulated. If you do not want to
get pregnant I suggest you get back on
that pill asap.

Sheesh. Why did you quite your pills?
Are you trying to become pregnant?
Go to the doctor, explain to him/her what
happened and get back on some form of
birth control. Use condoms. Anything is
better than nothing.
You're bleeding is caused by your hormone
levels getting off kilter.
