On Birth Control, Could This Be Implantation Bleeding? Posted: 01-28-05 12:37pm
I posted a similar question in another
section, but i'm going to post here too
because i'm becoming anxious.
I've been on birth control for the past
four months, my regular period finished
about 15 days ago, had sex about 8 days
ago, and yesterday I started with light
brown/pinkish mucousy discharge. Could
this be implantation bleeding?
I'm not so concerned about the fact that I
might be pregnant and I wasn't trying,
however, I am concerned about what will
happen if I am pregnant and I continue to
take the pill until I miss my period...If
I miss my period (i was pregnant once
before on birth control and had no idea
because I had my periods for two months
and I finally had a miscarriage in to the
third month.) I don't want to stop
taking the pill in case i'm not pregnant,
but it would be too soon to take a test
anyway...
Should I be worried? Will the pill hurt
the baby if I am pregnant? What should I
do?

I would contact your Dr. And get a blood
test done. The pill pack says if you
think you are pregnant to stop. So I dont
know what to tell you

Thanks, I guess I just wanted to see if a
similar situation had ever happened to
anyone else. I'll probably wait another
two days and then go for a blood test (hcg
shows up in blood 10 days after
fertilization)
i'd go to my family doctor, but it takes
about a month to get an appointment with
him, and I didn't want to go to the local
walk in clinic because I work for them :p
i'll feel awkward going in and telling my
boss (the doctor) that I need a pregnancy
test, but if i've gotta, i'll do it!
