Bc Pill Question, Pregnant? Posted: 06-05-04 23:42pm
I started the bc pill (ortho-tri-cyclen) 2
weeks after my af. The paper that came
with the pills said to wait a week, but I
waited about 11 days before having sex.
On the 11th day, (approx 3.4 weeks after
my last af) I had sex, but I used a lot of
spermicide, along with the withdrawl
method.
I called the clinic to ask them about when
I am "safe" on the pill, and they told me
two weeks. So once I reached the two week
mark, I began having sex. I am now on the
5th green (placebo) pill, and my period
hasn't come. I had sex, and I had a spot
of blood while wiping right after sex. I
dunno if this was because of the sex, a
precursor to my period, or implantation.
I heard you can skip your period the first
month, how likely is that?
How likely is it that I am pregnant, and
when would a blood test be accurate? I
took a home test the day I had the spot of
blood (5th placebo pill) and it was
negative. Any insight?

You can get a blood test and it will be
accurate. You may just be missing your
period because your body is ajusting to
the pill. Good luck! =)

Most likely it is your body adjusting to
the pill. If you were careful when having
sex and did wait the correct amount of
time before having sex, you are fine. If
your period still hasn't come within a
week try another hpt. If you are
pregnant, your body will produce the
hormone hcg and will not go undected in a
hpt. If you are still unsure, simply get
a blood test taken and that will be your
true answer. Best of luck!

All know what that is most likely wan't
implantation bleeding. That usually takes
6-10 days to sshow up, if it does at all.
Chances are because of the new bc and
combined with sex you bled simply because
of the two combined. That happened to me
a lot when I first started bc, but I was
on depo.
