i need some advice here... i'm kinda freaking out.
graphic, sorry.
anyways, so im on the ortho evra patch and i'v been on it for a while know and well last month i accedentally forgot to change it and went 2 days with an old one on and my period was like 5 days early and my period was like 10-11 days, hell i know, trust me. and well it was like done after about 6 (normal for me) but the yucki brown-end-of-the-period stuff went on forever. then finally it just stopped and i was like okay sweet. im on patch #2 for this month and i changed it on monday, and since like sunday night or monday morning i started getting that yucki brown stuff again and i dont know why and its really kind of scaring me. I had sex with my b/f on that friday, we dont use condoms because im on birth control and well.. to be honest i do NOT want to be effing pregnant. idk why i would be tho? you don't spot or bleed if your pregnant do you? please help.. i dont want to go to the doctor if its something stupid like my period wasnt done coming out or something haha. write back asap!! i rate high.
Additional info, added Tuesday November 8 2005, 6:03 pm: oh yah, and i checked the instructions and faq's on the box and it said that if u miss changing the patch 1-2 days, to use alternate forms of birth control (condoms) for 7 days. which i did. just so you all know that tid bit!.

Not just explain the problem.. but have the doctor look at that. And while you're there, you can have them take a preg test for you and that lovely pap smear is just oodles and oodles of fun.
