Hello, I had unprotected sex one week ago, at this time I had stop taking the pill(Ovranette). About an hour ago I started bleeding, like a light period. I thought I was pregnant and I was waiting to take a pregnancy test in about a week. Why is there bleeding and should I be worried. To add there are slight cramps in my stomach and back pain but nothing to bad. Pretty scared and not sure what to do.

When did you stop the pill? Did you wait until your last pack was finished?

When is your next period due? Is this bleeding on schedule with your period?

When you stop the pill it can throw off your schedule.

This is most likely the beginning of your period, but, if you want to try a pregnancy test there's no harm in doing so.

As for the cramps, stomach and back pain, sounds like menstrual symptoms.

No I'm not due for another week.
I was hoping that it was my new period because of stopping the pill mid packet.

I'm going to the doctors tomorrow to make sure everything is okay.
Thank you, you've put my mind at rest.
