Hi everybody. I have been on birth control since I was 17 and now i'm 22. I have been on seasonale for a little over a year and a half now. I know there are alot of problems with spotting on this pill, but I haven't spotted since my 6th month on it. Recently I had to leave my brand new package of birth contol pills in a car during a texas summer day for several hours. I had not yet taken one of the pills (it was sunday (july 10th) and i'm a sunday start) and I was worried about its effectiveness. I called a pharmacist and she said not to worry, that since it wasn't for an extremely long time it was fine so I took all my pill on time that night and have since. Well, my boyfriend and I had sex that monday and tuesday night, using condoms but on tuesday he went in a little before he put the condom on. The following friday, sat, and sunday I had a small amount of spotting. It was dark muddy brown, like my previosly spotting on the pill was. I only could notice it friday and sunday when I wiped, but saturday a small amount got on my underwear. I was wondering if I could be pregnant b/c of birth contol failure? Would the spotting have been implantation bleeding? When is the soonest I can take a hpt? I'm so incredibly worried about it and I won't have my period for about another 3 months, and I can't go on that long without knowing! Please help!
