Cramps

I have been on Yasmin since July 2007, and I have had no problems with it. No breakthrough bleeding, my period comes on the 6th white pill and lasts for a normal 4 days. But my last period on October 27 was slighty off a bit. It started, but was very light the first day which is not normal, and it lasted till Wednesday which normally by Tuesday its over. On Saturday November 3 and Sunday November 4, I had cramps all day long and my back hurt which again is not normal. I normally start getting cramps about 2 weeks before I get my period, but not everday. Today on my way to work, I got very nauseas on the bus and I almost threw up. I feel somewhat better now ater eating breakfast, but my back is killing me still. I have sex on a regular basics and my boyfriend never pulls out. My doctor is on vacation this week and he has someone covering for him, but only to contact him if it is an emergency and right now this is not an emergency.

Any insight on why I'm feeling this way? Chances are slim that I'm pregnant, because I'm on the pill. Thanks!

You get cramps before your placebos too??? I'm not alone! GOOD! I get cramps a week before my withdrawal bleed and they just keep getting stronger and stronger until I start. Any bleeding is considered a period on the pill. I highly doubt you're pregnant. Plus, this was a while ago...so I guess you would know now. :)

There still could be that chance you are pregnant. The pill isn't always 100% effective. I'd give it a few more days and then take a pregnacy test just to be sure or even see the dr. Good luck!
