Lo Loestrin Fe And No Period
UpdatedI started taking lo loestrin for the first time a few days before my period on jan 2 2014. I was still getting use to the Times i would take them so i took them at different times on some days I had intercourse on that same day not protected. I then had breakthrough bleeding within 6days after taking the pill, and stopped the pill immediatly on jan 8 2014 due to really painful cramps. The break through bleeding stopped on jan 13 2014. I was wondering how long would it take my cycle to start after only taking this birth control for a week? Is It possible I could get pregnant for stopping the pill after a short ammount of time or not being consistant with it time wise? Help. :( I'm now two weeks late.

Hello, Janine! How are you?
Yes, there's a chance you could be pregnant. In order for them to prevent pregnancy, you either have to start them the first or second day of your period. Otherwise, if you start them at any other time, they must be taken for a full 7 days, without missing any tablets, in order for them to reach their efficacy level in your body.
Have you consulted your doctor, yet?
