Missed birth control pill, had unprotected s*x and was on antibiotics?

Question

My period was irregular last month. I had it like normal at first then in the middle of taking the active i got it once again! Not even 2 weeks after the last period. It lasted like 7 days and at that point i had one week till i was supposed to take the brown pills and start my cycle once again. I didn't want my cycle again so i just skipped the brown pills and started a new pack. I'm now two weeks into the new pack and i have been having brown discharge. I missed a pill and took two the next day but it was hours later than i would normally take it... I also was on antibiotics and my husband came inside me everytime we had s*x.. What does the brown discharge mean? Is it cause i continued onto a new pack of pills when i was supposed to take the brown pills? I read that brown discharge can mean pregnancy.. Am i pregnant?

Answer 1

The discharge could be from excess blood due to you not having your period. The best thing for you to do is to take a pregnancy test- the chances of you being pregnant are pretty high.

Answer 2

Brown discharge is sometimes a normal period for some women. Was this a new pill you were trying when you got the two periods? It takes a while for your body to get used to them so two periods or spotting would be common.Taking two pills on one day doesn't make up for the one you missed. Birth control doesn't work that way. And you were on antibiotics and you didn't use a condom?

OK...first you need to see your doctor/OBGYN and tell them everything you mentioned here and anythign else you can think of. You need to learn about your body and what a period is and how it can show itself, etc.

Second....you need to learn how to properly take the pill. Everything from supplements to herbs to over the counter meds to prescriptions can effect the pill. Please learn now to take it correctly, Jumping around and taking new packs....that just messes with your hormones and make the pill even less effective.

Third...After all this...you didn't use a condom. You had questions about the discharge, and the pill....and then you didn't protect yourself.  I don't understand this. If you don't want to become pregnant, then you need to properly take care of yourself and take all steps to make sure that you don't...and that includes using a condom and the pill, especially if you;re not taking the pill correctly and you are on other medication that will not make the pill effective.

Are you pregnant? Yes you could be. I doubt it but you never know. Ask your doctor.
