asked

I have been on the combination birth control pill since September and have had light spotting twice in the last month. I took a week off the pill in April and missed a dose before having unprotected sex. I am also on lamotrigine for bipolar disorder. Could I be pregnant, and is this irregular bleeding normal?

I am 21 years old and have not had my period for over 7 years. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
