Asked by eeyore200343 (180points) October 30th, 2008

i had an upset stomach on holiday and had the number 2s. i am on the pill but was still having sex as i didnt realise it cancels the pill out. this was around 2 weeks ago. i have come on a period but it is very light and dischargyish, not normal for me! just done a pregnancy test was negative. a friend told me my light period may be due to my worrying. do you think i am pregnant?

considering that you have already done the test and it shows negative result and you had period i believe you are not pregnant

as what your fren had said you probably worry too much. it affects your hormon balance therefore affecting your period.

Your period color may be from the blood being old or from you being sick. since the pregnancy test was negative and you have your period i would say no your not. but if your worried about the way your period looks and thinks something is wrong i would say go to the doctors just to make sure nothing is causes it to be a weird color. But i would say your perfectly fine.

what is supposed to be cancelling out your birth control pills in this scenario? Are you taking antibiotics or something?

upset stomach causes the pill to cancel out

Just do one more pregnancy test if you are skeptical about this.

ive read on some websites that the light period im describing could be related to pregnancy

I do not believe upset stomach can “cancel out” birth control, unless you vomit directly after taking your pill.

The illness you experienced can cause your period to change. Also, because you are stressed and worrying about pregnancy, your period may be irregular. Many, many things can cause irregularities in menstruation.

stress absolutely can cause you to skip or have an unusually light period. Wait a few days and do another test if you really want to, but you should be fine.

LCG and Jsc are right. An upset stomach will not cancel out the pill.

Kudos to you for being a trooper and still having sex with an upset stomach and the #2s…
