Help Me, Could I Be Pregnant ? Posted: 05-19-07 15:12pm
Okay so here is the scenerio....
I am on birth control and take it every
day around the same time, and haven't
missed a day in a couple of months. So
last month my boyfriend and I had sex in
the beginning of the month (April) we
didn't use a condom and he pulled out. I
got my period that month and it was short
and really really light, which is
extremely rare and it got me nervous so my
boyfriend and I didn't have sex at all
this month (not even oral or anything) and
i was suppose to get my period on Sunday
and haven't got it yet. Keep in mind I'm
on the pill which is suppose to regulate
my period. I don't understand how I still
haven't got my period when we didn't have
sex this month and I had my period last
month. I haven't had any signs of
pregnancy and I've been stressing out a
lot lately. So do you think I'm pregnant.
Can people give me some advice? I'm really
nervous and scared, and I can't talk to
anyone about this. HELP!

It doesn't sound too likely that you're
pregnant though rarely pregnancy does
happen on the pill even when it's used
correctly. Being on the pill will cause
you to have very light periods. The
longer I was on the pill, the lighter my
periods got. In the end, they were mostly
just spotting, and I didn't even need a
tampon, just a pantyliner. For peace of
mind, you should take a home pregnancy
test. The results should be accurate by
now, and being on the pill will not alter
the results of the test.
What brand of pill are you on? There are
certain birth control pills that commonly
cause women to skip periods while on
them--Loestrin and Yaz come to mind.
