Not entirely sure what's going on here


Question Posted Thursday January 21 2010, 9:55 pm

I'm sure it's nothing to worry or stress about, and I'm not.
I just wanted to check and see what others might think about the situation.
Ok, so I've been on birth control for the past 4-5 years now. And my period is always the second or third day of the sugar pills and lasts about the whole week if not ending 2 days early.
I couldn't get a refill of my prescription until I went in for a Pap. Therefore, I was off the pill for two weeks. I wasn't made aware of this until I mentioned my period coming that early. I have to take Wellbutrin and I had also been taking some type of anti-inflamatory pills for ten days for my lungs. My dad makes sure I take my medicine at the same time each day by waking me up in the morning and giving me my pills, because I can be pretty forgetful.
After about a week of being back on it, I got my period two weeks early, which I figure is because I was off for two weeks. Makes sense I guess. Right?
Ok, well then two weeks later, when the period was oringinally intended, I started what I thought was my period.
And I was pissed cause I thought I was getting two periods this month.
But everytime I put in a tampon, I'd take it out about 4 hours later at the most, and there would barely be any blood on it ay all. Not even enough to fill a quarter of it. And the blood was hella light, like a faded pink rather than the regular red I get. This continued for about two or three more days. About the second day of the "period" I started cramping. Not the intense painful cramps I normally get, just slight tugging kinda feeling. Small cramps, on and off lasting a few minutes if not shorter. It started last Monday, and it's Thursday now and I'm still feeling the cramps.
Every now and then I'll get this random wave of uneasiness, not hardcore naseua, but the moderate uncomfortable feeling you get in your stomach.
I get dizzy, but then again, I've always gotten lightheaded out of nowhere with my body feeling weak for a bit.
I've been sleeping just fine, though I'm pretty exhausted throughout the entire day. Even after I've gotten up. And I'm normally a morning person, when I'm up, I'm up.
I don't remember the last time my boyfriend and I had sex, haha, I think it might have been like three weeks ago and we had sex less than an hour apart, and I was laying down the whole time in between. We don't use any protection other than the pill, which you can save the lecture on because I know it's not the smartest thing to do. We're not trying but then again we don't care at all if I end up pregnant.
For some reason he has a LOT of cum, which is kinda weird to me but whatever. I don't know if that would make any difference with pregnancy, hahaha.
Like I said, I'm sure it's nothing but I just wanted to see what other people may think.

The first thing you should do is to take a pregnancy test. Don't think that you can't be pregnany because you were bleeding since the last time you had sex. When you get pregnant and the egg implants into the lining of the uterus, it is common to get some bleeding. Most people think this is a period and don't think about being pregnant until the next time they miss their period.

If it is not pregnancy, then it may just be your body trying to re-regulate itself after the lapse in hormones from missing the couple weeks of BC pills. If it is not pregnancy, then you don't have to do anything different. Just keep taking your pills as scheduled and everything will be back on track in another month or two.

Good luck!
