Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
You have dropped taking your contraceptive pills about 2 to 2.5 weeks back.&had sex followed by bleeding. Scared of being pregnant.
Yes.. irregular intake of oc pills does have risk of pregnsncy because of chance of rebound ovulation.. in such case spontaneous abortion after sex stress is possible.
But if it was the first time you had sex after stopping pills .. the bleeding could be withdrawal bleeding.. without possibility of pregnancy.
*In such case.. you should observe your period..in case it stops normally.. get checked by a gynecologist & get IUD inserted (to avoid the recurrance of problem
*in case bleeding is profuse get treatment to clear off possible pregnsncy followed by IUD insertion.
Thanks.
