Hey girls so recently I have missed two pills one on the 11th & the other one on the 19th, yesterday night I had small cramps and today when I woke up I went to the restroom, wiped and saw lil bit of blood on the paper, does this mean I’m pregnant or is this a side effect of not taking two pills? Someone please lmk I’m worried now 😭

Did you take the missed pills as soon as you remembered? If so how many hours late did you take the missed pill? What pill are you on?

@bluerose9 no I didn’t take the missed pills & I am on Perla

I think that’s a combined pill. Did you follow your pamphlets instructions for missed pills?

Missing pills can lead to experiencing side effects. But generally you are supposed to take a missed pill as soon as you remember you’ve missed it, so by not doing that your protection is potentially affected. But again you’ll need to consult your pamphlet on what you were supposed to do

@bluerose9 so am I pregnant or no 😔 I’m worried lmaoo

@arelyruiz I have no idea, you need to look at your pamphlet and if you didn’t follow your pamphlet’s instructions on missed pills then you’re best to talk to a pharmacist about what you need to do next.

two missed pills can compromise your protection, you could be pregnant. but yeah as above, we don’t know. talk to a professional

When you take the pill you need to be responsible and make it a priority to take your pill on time to avoid situations like this. If taking your pill is too difficult it may be a good idea to seek other forms of birth control

@arelyruiz it is most likely just from you missing the pills, at least for me personally I get extreme side effects even just from missing one day and sometimes these can be delayed so don’t worry. However I’m not an expert and it doesn’t mean you aren’t pregnant. I would however say it’s unlikely. See how things go :)

@milinette that’s what I was thinking because when I miss one pill I usually get small cramps but this is the first time I bleed! So I’m guessing it’s just because I missed pills but tysm either way 🫶🏼

either way, if you have sex make sure you use condoms until you’ve used your pills properly for a full 7 days
