Asked by Unregistered (Female; 19; I have had two abortions in the past ) on Mon 25, Jan 2010 02:31pm :

Starting from the beginning, December. December the 11th i came on my period and started taking the pill, my period was pretty normal. 26th of December i had sex but as of this day i did not take the pill i went on to have sex till the 31st of December and on this particular time i had sex i woke up on the 1st bleeding it started of heavy and within hours it was very light and so it continued like that till the 3rd. I then went on to have sex on the 9th and the 16th i then had unprotected sex on the 17th i took the morning after pill on the 19th 50 hours after intercourse and then agen had unprotected sex on the 23rd its now the 25th and i started bleeding today. Im concerned about the problems i may have caused to my body by not taking the pill properly and possibly cervical cancer i am only 19 but with my history of sexual partners and bleeding after sex im very worried.. i very much doubt that im pregnant but im still concerned about it.

Answer by Dr. Harsh Abbott (oncologist) on Tue 26, Jan 2010 05:11pm:

Hi, without actual physical examination and certain investigations it is difficult to come to a diagnosis as there can be several causes for such irregular bleeding pattern. Since you had often unprotected sexual intercourse it may be possible that you are pregnant and light bleeding is due to implantation bleeding, but it may be as a side effect of irregularity in taking pills as they are mostly hormonal based which can change your bleeding pattern. However, I suggest you to do your urine pregnancy test in case you miss your periods, if negative then do your hormonal profile and ultrasound and consult your gynecologist. Thanks.
