Oral Contraceptive (oralcon)
(Newest replies first)

Hi. I've been using oralcon for a while now, I have missed it for 3 days and had intercourse on the first day I've missed it. I again started taking it after the third day of missing it and now I seem to be having my periods or just spotting. Could I be pregnant and is this normal?

Hello, Walles! How are you doing?

Yes, if you miss several tablets in a row, it is normal to spot or experience a full menstrual flow. That's actually how your period is induced, when you're taking hormonal contraceptives, it's a withdrawal bleed, the week of pills when you have your period have no active ingredients.

And yes, it you missed several in a row and had intercourse, then there is a chance you could be pregnant.

If you want to restart them now, you'll need to check to make sure that you aren't pregnant, then start over with a new pack. If you start on the first day of your period, then you are immediately protected against pregnancy, but if you start them at any other time, you'll need to take them for 7 days in a row, without missing any, before you will be protected. So, for that week, you'll need to abstain or use some other form of contraception.

You also need to find some way to remind yourself to take them every day, so you stop missing pills. Can you leave a note for yourself?
