inactive pills & bleeding
Posted: 06-05-07 09:30am

my inactive pills started sunday morning i skipped sundays because i herd they are just reminder pills and i always remember to take my pills because my cell is set to go off every morning at 8:05am. well saturday night i had unprotected sex and since i started taking the inactive pills monday i have not started at all. the first week i was on the pill (the sunday after my af) was ok and after 7 days of being on it i started to bleed. i was bleeding till like the middle of the 3rd week and then it stopped and then it spotted for the rest of the 3rd week. i was wondering since i was bleeding that whole time should i not be having a af now that i am on the inactive pills or should i be on my af regardless? i am kinda nervous.

3rd day on inactive pills and no af.......

So let me get this straight...

You've taken all the pills right, but not the inactive pills. You had sex on Saturday, and started the inactive pills on Monday, and haven't gotten your period.

I wouldn't worry at all. Sometimes your period doesn' t come right away like you would think. And not taking the inactive pills doesn't matter. You don't have to take them.
