What Are The Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

i have been on the pill for almost 2 years and a week after having sex this month i got a tiny bit of bleeding for 2 days. at the begining of my pack of pills for this month i missed a few. im now confused whether the bleeding means im pregnant or is just because i missed some pills?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion when the intake of pills is irregular like missing etc the protection with the pills decreases and there will be risk of pregnancy.The bleeding can be due to either hormonal imbalance caused due to irregular intake.But pregnancy should also be ruled out as there are chances for pregnancy too.Consider getting a urine pregnancy test done after a week of missed period.If the period is delayed for more than 10 days to 2 weeks consult your doctor for furthur management.
