You are supposed to start BCP the Sunday after your period starts. Okay, swell. I started mine a week later than I should have, because my OB was late in getting me the script but he said it would be fine and to just use condoms.
I started spotting, pretty heavily though, last week with one full week of active pills left, and AF was technically due yesterday. If anything, I am suddenly bleeding less.
The ONE effing thing I have going for me in the reproductive arena is that I O regularly and have 28-29 day cycles, unmedicated. I know, those are BIG things and I am very lucky.
How badly have I fvcked myself? I'm off the stupid pills for good now, but I can't believe this.
Re: Seriously, how much damage could I have done here?
You haven't f-d yourself. Many OB's and RE's use BCP to "reset" people's periods.
IMO, you will be fine.
Thank you, I am just being a big effing baby because I never spot or have irregular periods, and I have now been bleeding for 8 days...and AF is still "due."
Also, I am horny. And it is pissing me off.
LOL...I know how you feel. Before my most recent loss and even through all of the meds I was always 28-29 days down to the hour. Recently...I get brown spotting for like 8 days before AF shows...if flipping blows!
We need to have more booze in our club house, clearly.
I just did this before I cycled and AF arrived right on time despite still taking the pill. I finished the pack, went in for my baseline and it was if I was still Day 3. You'll be fine.
