I started using the patch 3 weeks ago and
hadn't been on b.C for 3 months or
more..When I first started the patch 3
weeks ago I had sex with my boyfriend and
have had every day since then. I took it
off last sat and had sex again. I started
my period on yesterday, but was having all
the pregnancy symptoms. Is it possible to
have a period and still be pregnant?

Ok, I know that people think that after
you have been on the pill for more than
one month it is ok to have unprotected
sex, but it isn't. The truth is, my
doc told me for sure wait 9 months, if
ever. It doesn't hurt to use a little
extra protection. The facts are, yes
you could be pregnant and have your
period. The sperm could still be
"swimming" inside of you for days after
until they die. You are also most
fertile two weeks after you ovulate and
the day before you ovulate. Another
thing, most girls freak themselves out so
much that their bodies act like they are
pregnant, afterall that is what the pill
and the patch is for, tricks your body
into thinking it is pregnant. If you
are really worried about it, find a family
planning in your area and get a pregnancy
test, for free. Good luck!!
