Is Bleeding After Missing Birth Control Pill A Sign Of Pregnancy?
i have been on the birth control pill for about a month and i missed three pills in a row i had sex the day before i missed the pills. i was told to throw the pack away, so i did and start the new pack after i get my next period. i bled for about three days after i missed the pills. and is that a sign saying i cant be pregnant? could i be pregnant?

Hello,
Bleeding you noticed is due to the missed pills. It is not indicative of pregnancy. Start the fresh pack and use an additional contraceptive method for at least 2 weeks.
