I am on the RIGEVIDON contraceptive pill and have been for almost a year now. I often follow the instructions (there have been a few times where I have forgotten to take the pill however not whilst being sexually active)
I am 18 this month and my boyfriend is 19. We often use a condom, pull-out method along with the pill, however there have been times when we have had sex without using a condom (I have always made sure that he has pulled out). I can't remember the exact day we had sex but we engage in intercourse at least twice a week, and so it could have been any of these times that have caused possibly pregnancy.
I am aware that leakage of sperm can cause pregnancy and recently I have been having some interesting symptoms: I strongly felt like I was going to throw up on two separate occasions, once last week and once this week, however once I had rushed to the bathroom, I burped and the sickness was gone. I'm not sure if this still counts as morning sickness. Also, I noticed last week that my appetite had changed- I felt fuller sooner than usual. However my eating habits are back to normal this week.
I thought that since these symptoms only happened last week, that it might have been just a bug or something, however this morning I found I had leaked a very small amount of blood with my discharge- it was very light- only slightly light pink. I then began researching pregnancy symptoms and found that spotting, nausea and change in appetite are all possible symptoms. I also found that feeling more emotional is also a symptom, and I have realised I have been feeling very weepy last week.
My period doesn't start until a week in 2 days, and the wait is killing me. I am not able to buy a pregnancy test until Friday as neither I nor my boyfriend have been paid yet and we have both recently spent all our money. My parents do not know that I am sexually active and this has caused me to stress even more. I am worried that my anticipation for my period to come will cause it to delay, even if I am not pregnant.
My question is if my symptoms show strong possibility that I might be pregnant, and if I should take a test earlier than Friday. I don't feel that I am pregnant however I am not aware of any other explanation for my symptoms.
Also, advice on how to confess to my parents that I will require an abortion would also be appreciated.
PS: I am aware that I should have been more responsible for my actions and fully regret not using a condom during sex and for relying only on the contraceptive pill, however I am not looking for lectures (I don't mean to sound rude in saying that)
Thank you for any help!!

Hi ShanMan,
If you have been taking the Rigevidon as directed, it is unlikely you are pregnant - condom or no condom. The Rigevidon is your protection.
You need to wait at least two weeks from when you had sex OR until your period is due to test. You MUST use your first morning urine, your wake up pee, for the best accuracy. Testing early, false negatives are very common.
I doubt you are pregnant. Your symptoms are not specific to pregnancy.
Hope it helps.
