Birth control, sex and bleeding
Posted: 06-01-08 16:06pm

I began taking BC for the first time on May 9 (a Friday and the first day of my period). I take the pills every night between 10 and 11:30. I had sex with no other birth control this past Wednesday morning (May 28 ) so I was on week 3 of my active pills. I noticed pain in my lower abdomen on Thursday and by Friday (the first day of my inactive pill week) I started having bleeding. Sometimes heavy and sometimes light.

Is this normal? My period isn't due until this Friday (June 6). Is this a complication from my partner ejaculating in me? Could I be pregnant? I didn't know if this bleeding is normal or not. It is enough for me to wear a small tampon to prevent leakage onto my underwear.

It is normal to start bleeding when finished the active pills and started the inactive ones. You are right that bleeding started 1 week earlier but that happens only the first time when start taking pills. The first cycle is always one week shorter than the next ones because it has to be like that.
You neither have some complication nor you are pregnant.

Buffster, yes, you can get pregnant from precum. The chances of you becoming pregnant from only a second or two with the tip in isn't extremely high, but there is still ALWAYS a chance when the penis enters the vagina, and even more of a chance if he had precum (which, by the way, boys can't feel when they have precum most of the time, so the pull out method or playing around like that is not safe if you want to be protected from pregnancy and are not on some other form of birth control).
