I recently started birth control 4 weeks ago and took it off last week because the patch was making me sick. I had sex two days later and now I'm bleeding. Am I pregnant, or is this withdrawal bleeding after stopping the birth control? I also had sex 2 weeks ago on my period while I was on birth control. My period was supposed to come next week but it's early. I don't know if stress caused it or because I took the patch off. I stopped my birth control patch in the middle of the week and started noticing brown discharge that I always get before my period, and then I started bleeding. Is this withdrawal bleeding or implantation that means I'm pregnant? Should I expect my period to come this month or next? I had protected sex both times. Could the patch have already been out of my body at that time? 3 days later when I had sex. Is it normal to feel bloated after stopping birth control? I feel like I might have IBS after stopping. Is it normal to not get a period this month since I bleed for 3 days when I took the patch off? If I don’t get a period this month, I should take a test even though I bleed already. Oh, I thought the bleeding I had earlier in the month was my period. Do you think there’s a chance even though I had protected sex?
