Im not pregnant am i?

Question

usually have a very heavy flow. But since i went on Loestrin my periods have gotten lighter. This is the first time i have taken the pill 3 months in a row without any breaks(approved my doctor) for the past month i have been bleeding just a little bit. I have now been off the pill for 4 days and my period is lighter then normal.. Is this okay? Im a virgin but i have been fooling around with my boyfriend.. and he ejaculated in that area... Should i be concerned? Or am i just light becuase i have been slightly bleeding all month..
Its a very light period.

Answer 1

Taking the pill three months straight resulted in a very light buildup of the lining of the uterus. The pill ordinarily causes less buildup to occur and after three months straight, I'm not surprised to hear the withdrawl bleeding is very light. I'm not quite clear on the bleeding for the past month, if you mean you have been spotting for an entire month then you really need to see the gyn soon. You aren't likely to be pregnant, at any rate. I suppose some mathematician can figure the odds on getting pregant via ejaculation at the opeing, but in reality the odds of that happening are not good. And when you add in that you are on the pill, that really raises the odds against it. Pregnancy is not a real concern here, though you do need to see the doctor if you have had breakthrough bleeding for the past month. Another aside concerning fooling around with the boyfriend, use a condom. Pregnancy is not the worst thing that can happen, and you have the pill for that. But STD's can and do spread through unprotected sexual activity of all sorts. You can still catch genital warts, and all the other wonderful things. No love without a glove, dear- birth control pills or not.

Answer 2

When you bleed from a break in the pill, although this is not the same as a proper period, it is indeed an indicator that you aren't pregnant and this is lighter, not gone altogether, so does not indicate you are pregnant.

It is very unlikely you will become pregnant without having sex.
It is remotely possible if you pushed it up there (for want of a politer way to put it!) on fingers or an implement or something.
Since you are unsure, get a clear blue test anyway. They cost money, but the knowledge is worth it.

You don't say your age, but I know in the UK at least pregnancy tests are free for youths, from family planning clinics, and probably in other countries too if you know which sexual health charities to go to.

Oh, and in future you might want your boyfriend to ejaculate somewhere else. Having to worry about being pregnant, when you aren't even getting the sex - worth it, i don't think.

Answer 3

I personally have taken LOestrin bc. Being on BC pills full time doesn't mean that your periods will always be on time or how heavy they will be. I did have relatively light periods with this pill, and I took it for several years. If he didn't penetrate you, then there is no reason that you should suspect that you may be pregnant. If you have been bleeding CONTINUOUSLY all month, I'd call your gyno and see what's up.

Answer 4

Loestrin causes light periods, it is normal to have "breakthrough" bleeding. I don't think you are pregnant, but to make sure take a test. Make good use of Planned Parenthood, give them a call, they have excellent nurses and knowledgable staff to help. The myth below is something I found on a tenn preganancy website. You can find it on google. Check out a biology photo to help with "placement." Hope this helps.

Myth: I can't get pregnant if he doesn't ejaculate inside of me.
Fact: You can get pregnant if your partner ejaculates inside your vagina or on or near your vulva (this is your external genitals including the opening to your vagina). There is also something called pre-ejaculate which is a small amount of fluid that contains thousands of sperm. It is called pre-ejaculate because your partner releases it before he actually ejaculates. Because of pre-ejaculate, the withdrawal method (when your partner pulls out before he climaxes) is not a reliable birth control method.

Answer 5

The best thing to do if you Are concerned IS go to the Doc. and Have a test.. Some Methods Of Birth control can stop Or slow your period, But If you are concered enough that you ask strangers, Then will the answers be enough to stop you from be concerned? The best way to be sure Is see your doc..

Answer 6

I would not worry too much but it cannot hurt to take a test..... I know that one pill I was on pretty much stopped my periods all together and the doc said that could just be how my body normally reacted to that pill............Talk to the doc but as long as you have not missed a pill, I think you are fine.
Better safe than sorry.

Answer 7

ANY time you have sex, protected or not, you risk the chance of pregnancy. Taking pills as prescribed, you still have a chance. Skipping pills without any breaks (glad to hear you got approval first!! :)) is also a chance for pregnancy.

Take a test.

Pain when having sex?
I was fooling around with my boyfriend one day and it went in.. it didnt hurt at first, but i made him stop as soon as it did.. On the weekend we decided if we were going to have sex we would use a condom even though im on the pill. He only went in an inch and i asked him to stop becuase the pain was intense. Hes gone in farther before and it never hurt this much.. is it possible becuase the condom was sticking to me... Would using lube really help alot?

Answer 9

Do a test, but a lot of women young and old, get changes in their period after being on the pill full time

Answer 10

You're light because of the hormonal birth control. If you're worried, take a home pregnancy test. You wouldn't be the first woman to buy boxes of pregnancy tests to prove she's not pregnant because she missed her period on the pill.
