A member asked:

I had intercouse january 27th got my period february 16-20th the next week i started bleeding again could it breakthrough bleeding from starting my birth control pills? could that be a side effect? intercourse was unprotected known my bf for awhile?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnancy ?'s: If the bleeding were scant (not the usual menstrual flow) it may be from implantation, intrauterine or possibly outside the uterus (ectopic). Breakthrough bleeding from oral bcp's would require non-punctual taking of the active pills. Obtain a serum HCG level to be certain about pregnancy, and see your gyn asap if positive.
