Hello,  I missed my pill and forgot to take it the next day but then i continue taking my pills the day after that. im suppose to have may period after 2 weeks as im taking the red pills, but got my period on the last 4 red pills and after that stoped. Im feeling tired all of the time, i have headaches, have to go to the loo alot, my breast feel sensitve and nipples are bigger than usual. I took a pregnancy test a week after my period and it showed negative. Was it too soon to have a test. Am i pregnant or is it just the side effects of the Trigestrel pill?
Thanks for your question. The symptoms you describe are certainly suggestive of early pregnancy and a follow-up pregnancy test would be recommended. The fact that two pills were missed may have allowed the ovary to form a hormone producing cyst that could also produce these symptoms. Ultrasound would help determine if this were the case. However, these are all side effect symptoms that can be seen with women who use hormonal contraception for birth control. Ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy that develops outside the uterus, usually the fallopian tube) can also present in this fashion, the reason that follow-up pregnancy testing is indicated. I hope this answers your question. I am available for further consultation if needed.
