A member asked:
If i get my bleed during my 7 day break from the pill does this show that i am not pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Withdrawal bleeding: If you have taken your birth control pills correctly, they are highly effective in preventing pregnancy. The bleeding during the 7 days off active pills or on placebo pills is normal withdrawal bleeding. If you missed any pills or took them late, do a pregnancy test.
