    I had sex
    I had sex on Aug 5. But the pentration wasn't full and he withdrew before ejaculation. In any case I stood up immediately after it. I started taking Yasmin tablets that day and took it for 11 days and stopped it as I came to know I had to take it during my periods. After I stopped, two days later, I had withdrawal bleed and after three days I bleed continuously for 2 days but the blood was darker and flow was less. I started taking Yasmin tablets again and then the bleeding stopped. I have no pregnancy symptoms or anything. But could I possibly be pregnant ? And was that bleeding my period cycle or normal bleed ?

    Yes, you could be pregnant. Once a penis enters a vagina pregnancy is always a possibility. The withdrawal method is one of the least effective forms of birth control.

    Yasmin is not the morning after pill. It is designed to be taken every day consistently at the same time. Not just willy nilly when you have sex. It doesn't work to prevent pregnancy that way.

    Was that your normal period? Considering the way you are taking your birth control, it is impossible to say with any certainty.

    You need to learn how to use the pill correctly if you are going to use it at all. For now, because Yasmin does pose a high risk of birth defects, you need to stop taking it all together for at least a month, or until you get your next period.

    Iam not sure if it was my normal periods. I bleed continuously for two days and the blood was darker and the flow was less
    But the penetration wasn't full. His penis want fully erect
    What can I do to avoid pregnancy ? And I have asked people. They say if penetration not full then very less chances of pregnancy. Iam not sure about that

    I'm not sure if this was a normal period or not because you aren't taking the birth control as you are supposed to take it. Yasmin is not the morning after pill and will not protect you from pregnancy the way you are taking it.

    It doesn't matter if the "penetration wasn't full." The fact remains that you were indeed penetrated. There are sperm in the early fluids of a man that lubricate his penis that can still cause pregnancy.

    I don't have any symptoms of pregnancy yet. I had papaya and pineapple juice regularly and cinnamon tea too. I don't feel anything unusual

    I'm not sure what papaya and pineapple juice have anything to do with this.

    The first symptom of pregnancy is a missed period. You are now playing the waiting game and have to see if your next period comes as expected.

    You have to find out if you are pregnant first. If not, you dodged a bullet. If you are, most likely you will have to have an abortion, or give the baby up for adoption.

    Don't freak out yet. You still have a month to see if your next period comes as expected. If not, wait until you are 2 weeks late to take a HPT.

    ANY time there is penile insertion there is the risk of pregnancy. You can reduce the risk, but not eliminate it. There is nothing you can do now to avoid pregnancy from that 8/5 encounter. You just have to wait until you can be sure you missed a period and then take a test.

    If you want to avoid pregnancy, then do not allow penile insertion, that is the only sure way. If you want to make the risks minimal, you see your OB/Gyn to prescribe a method of birth control and you follow instructions exactly.
