Hello, last month instead of my period I experienced brownish spotting--it started a day before my period usually begins (though it has started a day early before), and only lasted 2-3 days at most. It only appeared when I wiped. It seemed odd but I assumed it was just a light period (no pain or anything unusual like that). This month, my period is late--only by 2 days, but in light of the weird period from last month I took more notice. I have had unprotected sex using the withdrawal method (reliable... I know...) along with birth control pills with fairly consistent use--I wouldn't describe it as "perfect" use, but it's rare that I miss. I recently switched from Yaz to Gianvi, maybe around 3 months ago. I know this certainly could cause changes in my cycle, but it seems as though if that were the reason it would have happened the month I switched, not several months later. I have been under a lot of stress because of my job, so I know that also could be a factor. Do you think it's worth it to take a pregnancy test? I don't know that I've had many typical pregnancy symptoms (no nausea, fatigue, breast pain, back pain etc., though I have been sensitive to smell), but I'm looking for other opinions. Any healthcare professionals want to advise? Thanks!
