Q: On the pill and later periods

I am 17. I am on tri-cyclen lo. I have been on it for about a year. I have not always taken it at the same time each day but I started to set an alarm this month since I started having sex with my boyfriend this month. We had sex with condoms, always. However, once we did without a condom, only for about 20 seconds and he never came. I am now two days late, although my period is very irregular anyway. Took 2 home pregnancy tests and they were negative. One one day before my period was expected, and one one day after. I really hope I am not pregnant. My boyfriend and I are very worried. Help?? I would appreciate your stories as well. Thank you!

LOl discharge is normal in all women.
if it has a bad smeel or is ever chunky like cottage cheese (yeah thats so gross i know lol)
then it could be an infection
other than that its ok Very Happy

I read from other posts that LOTS of discharge is a sign of pregnancy. I've had lots, more than usual.

I was just informing, actually, because I read the same thing, and I thought the increase of discharge was a possible pregnancy, and it ended up being an STD, which came quite a suprise to me.

=D =D =D & thanks.

thank you

Back when I had a big increase of discharge, I started researching. It didn't have an odor or anything, it was just really snot-like... I read that pregnancy meant an increase of discharge, and not to worry if it didn't have an odor, so I was thinking it could be pregnancy. I just recently found out I have Chlamydia.

Yikes... that sort of scares me... a woman's body sucks... there is so much that could be wrong. I guess the only way I will ever know is going to the doctors! In 3 more days i will know for sure...
Was the discharge clumpy-ish? Mine is a tiny bit, I have had yeast infections and its like that, I am thinking (HOPING) it is just a yeast infection not preganacy or STD..

No, not clumpy at all... it was just snot-like [yellow and extremely sticky]. Completely my fault for having unprotected sex... but, I'm glad I caught it early. They actually haven't called and told me it's Chlamydia yet; they just prescribed me meds and said they didn't know what it was yet. I know it is b/c Chlamydia takes two days to show up, and I have all the symptoms. Yucky. But, yeah, it's good your going to the doctor is three days.

Mine's not yellow and sticky. Its almost like normal discharge but... thicker and whiter... its weird... :S
Reseraching on the internet and seeing the things it could possibly be is scaring me. My doctor is a male, and I wish he was female. But what can ya do?..
I am quite the worry wart and I appreciate your help a lot.
I hope everything goes well for you!

Are you sure it isn't ovulation discharge? Haha. Which is usually thick & white. I've always had that during ovulation, so that kind never made me question it. My doctor was a male, too. A cute one. I didn't mind. Haha, just joking. But, at least you'll figure things out in three days. But, thanks.
