I have been using the birth control pill for about 5 months. It was coming to the end of my pack, but I didn't want to have my period. My friends have started a new pack as soon as they were done their last one to prevent getting their period. I thought i'd try this. However, I am about a week into my new pack and I have random spotting.

I remember one time while on my pills (when i new to taking them) I had been late taking some and as a result, I got spotting. During this pack, I remember being about 3 or 4 hours late on my pill, but only one pill. My friend tells me to stop taking the pills and just get my period. However, I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend a couple days ago and I am scared that if I go off the pill, even though he always pulls out before he releases, that I may somehow end up pregnant.

I really have no idea what to do and I'm scared because this has never happened to me before. If anyone, anyone at all has experienced the same or knows what I should do, please, let me know. Thank you
