Unprotected intercourse during fertile days, on contraceptive pills, flaky blood in urine and dark-colored spotting. Implantation ?
I am currently prescribed the oral contraceptive Junel, and take it at the same time every night, with the exception of 2-3 days where I was no more than two hours late taking it (and none of those days have been in the past week). I had unprotected intercourse seven days ago, during my fertile days; and am now experiencing flaky blood in my urine and dark-colored spotting. I am still 9 pills (including today) away from starting my row of sugar pills the week of my period. Could this be implantation bleeding or is it more likely that it s normal spotting?
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Since you are on a regular oral contraceptive pills, the chances of pregnancy are very less. The failure rates for oral contraceptive pills when used perfectly is 0.3% per year. The spotting is likely to be a regular menstrual spotting and unlikely to be due to implantation.
