Late Period And Pill...


Question Posted Tuesday July 22 2008, 9:28 am

Rightho, I've been on the pill for 21 days now, and am now on a break. First, I may as well tell you I've been taking it pretty much exactly the same time each day and to the letter of the instructions, which are:

*Take a pill on the first day of your period, and take it for 21 days. Then take a break for seven days. You should have a lighter and shorter period within these seven pill-free days.

I'm not too worried, as I have taken all 21 pills and I'm on my break of 7 days - but I'm on the third day and still no period. My period normally lasts about 8 days, but when i started taking it it lasted a full 10 days and was much heavier.

Is this lack of a period simply the way my body is reacting to the pill in the first few months?

Me and my boyfriend have had sex, but it has been protected with a condom as well as the pill this month. Could I be pregnant?

During these seven pill free days I was advised its fine to have unprotected sex; so me and my boyfriend yesterday decided to try it. Because he wasn't lubricated enough it was quite painful for him, so we'll be investing in some, and we never finished - I mean, he didn't come in me.

I know pre-come could contain some sperm, but as I'm on the pill, I'd think considering the one time I did have unprotected sex, he didn't even finish, it would be unlikely I was pregnant.

I'm sorry for bothering you!

Could I be pregnant?
Is it just my body reacting to the pill?
Thanks! :)

I don't think you have anything to worry
about. It says in the instructions "You
should have a lighter and shorter period
within these seven pill-free days." It is
also possible you can skip one.

If you are really worried though, a quick
call to the doctors office will help. Just
ask to talk to your doctors nurse. She can
let you know if its a problem. :)

Dear late period and pill,
Your body might just be reacting to the pill because sometimes when you go on pills for 21 days, your body could be reacting with with. No i don't think you could be pregnant. You just might want to have a test done to see if you are pregnant or not.
