Hello.
I have been on the pill for over 6 months now and my period and everything has been regular since I started. I had sex with my boyfriend 3 days ago (which would be my ovulation time - 2 weeks prior to when I'm supposed to get my period). He did ejaculate inside of me and the scary thing is that i missed my pill that day but did take 2 pills the next day to cover my missed pill. I know it's only been 3 days since we had sex but I am having uncomfortable pains/cramps and i have a reddish brownish discharge. I hardly ever have discharge so it kind of worries me. My period isn't due for another week or so so this is freaking me out. Am I just being paranoid?
DID YOU KNOW that pregnancy does'nt just happen in 3 days? IF you were to have sex when you ovulated it would take 7-12 days for the egg to implant into your uterus... THAT is when you are pregnant, and can take a test.
Missing one pill is unlikely to make you ovulate, especially because you did the right thing by taking two the next day!!! If you miss 3-4 pills, that's when you have to worry..... Your body has to lack hormones for a few days in order to make you ovulate.
