A member asked:
I had bleeding (not spotting) on my placebo week but i missed 4 pills in my week 1. does having bleeding in my placebo week means im not pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bleeding during the "placebo week is expected, but "missing four active pills in week one" will not stop ovulation, and if you have been having unprotected sex, the chances for pregnancy are increased.
