A member asked:

If i bled the exact day i was supposed to get my period, but was taking my birth control late and had sex, could have it been implantation bleeding?

Doubt it: If you are 1) taking birth control, 2) started your period when expected the chance of being pregnant is - well, very low. If you are not certain you should do a home pregnancy test. Good wishes.

Unlikely: check a pregnancy test if your period is late and start using contraception!
