Questions

I've been on my bc (loestrin fe) for about 7 months now. I've never missed a pill but occasionally take it at a different time. Between 7:10 and 7:30. I know that that's alright but I go on and off with periods. Sometimes it starts with the white pills and sometimes the red and sometimes not at all. I also have bleeding during my second week for about 3 days. Is this normal? Could I be pregnant? Should I be worried?

Hi there!
Pregnancy on loestrin Fe is likely if you miss pills, start a new pack late, or take your pill at a different time of the day than usual. Any vaginal bleeding between periods, spotting, or missed/irregular periods can happen especially during the first few months of use. It is best to consult your gynecologist and discuss your concerns with her. That will be helpful. Do keep us posted.
Take care and regards!

Okay thanks... Does 15 minutes make a difference? And does taking the pill progressively early (so like first week at 9 second at 8 third and fourth at 730) make a difference On whether or not you'll get a period? Is it normal to skip periods for 1 month?
