just wondering if you still get a withdrawal bleed if you’re pregnant on the pill? normally we rely on a period every month to know we’re not pregnant, is it the same on the pill? thanks

While on the pill you are not due to have a period pregnant or not, since you don’t have a real period while on it. The only way to know if you are on the pregnant on the pill is to take a pregnancy test. As long as you take ur pill correctly you don’t have to worry about being pregnant. It’s completely normal for the pill to stop ur period

@Angel420 so if you’re on the pill is it recommended to test each month?

You can if you want for ease of mind but you don’t have to. If you know you are taking your pill correctly then you are always protected.

from what i’ve researched, the withdrawal bleed would most likely stop with pregnancy. but it’s possible for bleeding to be skipped on the pill without pregnancy, and it’s possible to still have some bleeding while pregnant. maybe keep a stash of cheap pregnancy tests to use if you’re ever worried, but if your withdrawal bleeding continues as usual i think that should be a good amount of reassurance as well
