Hello, I'm a newbie :) Or I think I could be possibly...

Basically I've been a little confused recently; for the past couple of weeks I've been feeling not quite 'right'. I'm currently on the pill, I have been for a while. However, I began on Microgynon first for a couple of months (before I went on the pill I was extremely irregular, I could go for months without af and then it would be heavy and painful, been like it since I started af at 14, I'm 23 now) but because I kept bleeding through my dr swapped me to Cilest as she felt maybe the hormones weren't agreeing with me. However it was actually worse- bleeding through sometimes every 2 weeks and it would last for days. Imagine how frustrating that is with the 7 day break on top :(

Now here is the confusion...(sorry about the long post!) About 3 weeks ago I had a rare moment of not bleeding through, so of course me and the OH took full advantage of that a few times :p However a day ( having done it about 4 times that week) later I started spotting so I thought great...another bleed through. So I did something I realise now I probably shouldn't have done (it was a moment of frustration as I was fed up with bleeding)- I cut straight to my 7 day break early as I was bleeding anyway. I forgot that the 1st and last line of the pack is important.

I've been noticing that after going back on the pill after the break like normal that I have been feeling new things that I never noticed on the pill. I've had the odd headache when I wake up which makes me feel a bit sick, which then disappeared in the day; this past week my lower back has been aching a lot along with my hips, particularly when standing around at work. I pee a lot anyway but I think I spend most of my time in the loo then working lately! The main thing I've noticed this passing month though is although I've been getting sharp twinges in my ovaries and cramps in my lower stomach...no bleed through yet!
That's a first lol .

My OH thinks I could be pregnant. It's a possibility after that possible pill screw up 3 weeks ago, but again it could be my body being a bit messed up due to hormones and the like. Still...going to take a test next week, no harm in checking. If it's negative then I'll go drs to get to the bottom of the bleeding, if it's positive then it'll be unplanned but loved :) A 'happy accident' as my OH said :p We've been best friends for 4 years and together for over a year, he's my rock :)

Will update next week
xx

Hello there, welcome to the forum. I'm not too sure I can offer any advice but I just wanted to wish you luck. If I were you I would go see your GP and let them know about the irregular bleeding. If you have had nothing at all in the last 3 weeks then there could maybe be a chance you are pregnant although if I were you I wouldn't keep on taking the pill if you think you could be pregnant as I'm unsure how that would affect a growing baby. The symptoms you describe could be the pill or pregnancy...
Best of luck! :) x
