If you ever suspect pregnancy, a pregnancy test is necessary.

Generally bleeding twice in one month doesn't mean you are pregnant. But, then again, it could.

Like Ingi said...
If pregnancy is suspected, the only way to know is to take a test.
We cannot sit here and tell you if you are pregnant or not. Only a test can-or a doctor.

And if you stopped taking birth control...you weren't protected.

Ahh, the problem is the pills. They are hormones. Stopping and starting them can really screw up your cycle.

Some women do have breakthru bleeding when taking birth control pills. If you see your doctor, s/he can change your prescription if this is bothersome to you.

It isn't advised to quit birth control pills in the middle of a cycle since it can throw your period/cycle out of it's 'normal' sync.

Good luck!

It could be the pills and for a safety measure you can take a pregnancy test to ease your mind.
