Are Abdominal Cramps And Brown Vaginal Spotting Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I am on the pill called microlevelen. I have been on it for about 6 months, no issues at all. I have been on placement the past two weeks, very stressed and forgetting to take my pill at the same time everyday. Since Tuesday (it is now Friday) I have been having cramps with quite a bit of brown blood, I have done pregnancy tests and they have come up negative but my Doctor won’t give me any other alternative issue other than pregnancy. Please help

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Microleven is a combined pill. If you miss doses for two days in consequence than protection is ruined so you can use a backup plan (emergency contraception or condom, etc.). The spotting may be either infection, pregnancy or hormonal disbalance. Wait for 5 days after day of expected period before taking pregnancy test.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka
