Question
i was on microgynon ed for two months. i stopped taking it during the last month of my normal period. i recently engaged in unprotected sex(pull out method). my period is about eight days late. i don't want to rule out pregnancy totally but i'm not sure whats going on.

Answer
Deyina,

It could be from during the last month of your period. So you could be pregnant or it might be something else. Do you have any other pregnancy symptoms? By the way, please let me know what happens. You can get a free pregnancy test at a women's center. Call 1-800-395-HELP or go to http//optionline.org
