User : hello, i have a qucik question about pregnacy
Doctor : Ok
Doctor : Please proceed
User : me and my girl friend have been sexually active, she is on the pill and we stop early every time, how ever her past 3 peroids have been very light, and this month she has had bad cramps about 3 weeks before she was supposed to start? could this be pregnacy or perhaps a cyst? or what are some other options?
Doctor : The pills could cause less bleeding, is she on regular birth control pills or emergency pills?
User : regular, and she has never missed one
Doctor : Ok
Doctor : Then she may not be pregnant
Doctor : The blood flow is usually scanty in women on pills
User : exactly, but what would explain the cramping 3 weeks early? and her breasts have become tender, and again this is about 3 weeks before her peroid
Doctor : As for the cramps, does she have any burning in the urine and where are the cramps located?
User : no burning and her lower stomach
Doctor : They may be due to a side effect of the pills.
