I've Missed My Period... But... Posted: 07-15-06 16:12pm
I have been on birth control pills for
this entire month. However, I am not
entirely sure if I am pregnant or not..
I've had unprotected sex with my boyfriend
an entire 10 days or more after retaining
usage of the pill. But, on 4th of july, I
had unprotected sex with him, but did not
take my pill that night because I did not
bring them with me... But I did double up
the next night.
Apart from that, I had to take plan b, the
morning after pill, a week or so prior to
that incident because I did not wait 7-10
days after usage of the pill to have
unprotected sex.
During that episode, I went to a planned
parenthood clinic to obtain the pills
because I was at risk for pregnancy. That
same day, since I already had the pills, I
had unprotected sex again, and took the
pills that same exact night.
I missed my period and am currently on my
green "sugar" pills. It has been 2 days
and I still have not had my period. Plan
b says it can delay a menstuation cycle
for approximately 7 days, but are there
possibilities that I am pregnant?

Have you ever thought of an iud? I mean
that if you do not want to get pregnant
and if you keep forgetting to take your
b/c pill maybe the iud or the shot might
be a better thing for you, you might want
to talk to your dr and see what he or see
has to say after you check 1st to see if
you ar pregnant.
Good luck to you whatever you decide to
do!

You are only on day 2 of sugar pills, most
women will not bleed unitl 3-4 day on the
placebos!
Your body needs a few days to register
that "oh I am not taking anymore hormones,
time to have a period =)

Thanks a bunch!
It's because last time, I had my period
almost exactly the time I took the first
sugar pill.
So, that's why I was a bit worried.
But thanks again!

You did do very well in doubling up! That
usually does the trick quite well!
Since this is technically your period
week, you could take an early pregnancy
test if you wanted some reassurance, it
would be accurate =)

Just took it almost 30 minutes ago, and
it's a positive for me! Not pregnant!
What a relief. I can sleep well tonight!

Good to hear that. Just wondering..I
think I am 3 weeks over due for mine..I
have been using the pill almost to weeks
is that normal? I had spotting during the
last time I had sex..Well it looked a lot
more than spotting..Don't understand that.
