K,i finished my period last monday (april 5th) it lasted 5 days,like normal..
I started my birth control pills the day before I ended..I had sex on wednesday..Then on monday (the 12th) I bled for like 1 minute and stopped..I had this nasty brown discharge..And yeah..Yesterday @ skewl I started bleeding again,and the brownish discharge was there again..I had to go home early cause my stomach hurt really bad..I'm still bleeding and in pain..But why would I get my period again!? I just ended it....I skipped a pill on monday,would that make it come again!?..The guy I had sex with is getting all paranoid and thinks I shuld go to a clinic cause he's convinced i'm pregnant or sick..But I told him not to worri bout that..Anyone know what's going on!? I'm really confused!!

It could be breakthrough bleeding from skipping a pill.. And you could just feel sick as a side affect of the birth control. If you want you can take a test tho! How old are you? What will you do if you are?

I was on birth control before for 3 months..And I never felt sick or had any kind of like stomach pains..And if I skipped 1 pill..Nothing like this ever happened..That's why I think it's a little weird..I won't be able to take a test till the first week of may..That's when i'm supposed to get my actual period..But since i've had it twice now,will it be messed up next month!?...Ugh I hate all this!!!! 2 answer ur questions,i'm 16..I highly doubt i'm pregnant,so i'm not worrying about it..But if I was,i'd keep the baby..It'd be really confuzing tho cause it wouldn't be my bf's....Me and my ex broke up a month ago,but we've kept having sex..So yeah

If you are bleeding irregularly you are not pregnant. It sounds like it's because of skipping the pill one day. I found that if I missed even 1 day in the first week that I would get irregular bleeding the next week because of it.

The other girls are right. If you missed a pill you will have breakthrough bleeding (which usually is a brown discharge) and it can also make you feel sick. If you are not convinced then take a test, but just know in the future that if you do miss a pill you have to use condoms for at least two weeks until your b/c is fully effective again.
