xXxpinky615xXx answered Sunday June 19 2005, 1:09 pm: Yes, you can most definately get pregnant on the pill. The pills COULD kill it but sometimes they are not strong enough to. Being on the pill could cause spotting which could have been why she was bleeding. The only way for you to really know everything about birth control is to call your gynocologist and find out. They will tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about birth control, things to expect, what not to expect, your body's changes while on the pill, risks and etc. [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]

Generally, if a woman has break-through bleeding while on the Pill, it means that she has skipped a day or two. Skipping days is also the main cause of failure of the Pill as a means of birth control. If you get on the Pill, you have to be absolutely rigourous about not missing any days.
When you go to your doctor about getting on the Pill, ask him or her all the questions you can think of. You might want to write them down so you won't forget any of them. [ Heptune's advice column | Ask Heptune A Question ]

Birth control doesnt kill the baby it kills sperm cells that are inside the womans body(before it reaches the eggs of course) and its possible to get pregnant on birth control(unless u use a condom too) but the chances of getting pregnant ar SLIIIIIM because birth control is 98% effective...the bleeding is pre menstrual like an indicator of her period or it could be a side effect of "vaginal bleeding" from the birth control pills,or shot
