What Are The Early Signs And Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Hi my period had finished on 12th march but 3 days after i had bleeding for 2-3 days then it stopped. I was on the pill for nearly a year and had bleeding while taking it on last pack so have decided to come off it. I had unprotected sex about a week before period came. Could i be pregnant as i heard u can get some bleeding when fertilization happens?

HI,
I understand your concern.
- Some contraceptives ( progesterone only with no break)have side effect of irregular bleeding while on it. I feel you must have that problem while you were on last pack of the pills.( if you were regular in taking pills )
These pills after withdrawal take 4-6 months to regularize menstrual cycle ( with ovulation). So immediate conception after withdrawal / during taking the pills regularly ,is rare in such pills.
-There can be slight bleeding during ovulation ( which is avoided with OC pills ) & there can be implantation bleeding after 6-8 days of fertilization. There is no bleeding during fertilization.
Thanks.
