can i still get breakthrough bleeding even if im pregnant? worry a lot about being pregnant and even if i get a breakthrough bleed im still scared im pregnant because its not a real period.

If you are taking your pills correctly you should not be at risk of pregnancy. However, if you are anxious about getting pregnant I would recommend using extra protection to ease your mind. Breakthrough bleeding is a common side effect

@dftba breakthrough bleeding is a common side affect of pregnancy? i mean like the week break you have on the pill when u have ur period?

Oh I see what you meant now. The week you break from your pills is normally called a withdrawal bleed. Again, if you take your pills correctly you should be protected from pregnancy. Breakthrough bleeding is a common side effect in general when taking the pill, and that is bleeding that occurs while taking active pills

@dftba ohhh my bad okay thankyou
