getting off birth control, brown spotting and NO period !

by lkiddo87, Feb 20, 2006 12:00AM
Hi, I was on birth control for about 2 months and then stopped taking them at the beginning of a pack b/c of the health risks. i got my period after getting off the pills but am two weeks late for my next period and fear the possibility of pregnancy, due to being sexually active during the time i was off the pills. i have had some brown spotting though. Is it normal to miss a period afer getting off birth control and to get this brown spotting?   thank-you

anytime you have unprotected sex you can get pregnant and if you wernt on the pill at the time of unprotected sex highly likely you need to take a hpt nobody can really tell if your pregnant good luck.

After I got off the pill even though I was sexually active I had brown spotting and discharge and the doctor told me it was breakthrough bleeding.  I ended up getting pregnant right away so I would take a test to just make sure.
