Pregnancy tests, ovulation and ovulation tests
When to test?
MariaGuest ·
Hi everyone!
So I was on the pill, missed 2 pills in my 2nd week of the pill, and then had sex. After that, I got "spotting" – for several days, but not as heavy as usual.. The doctor said this doesn't count as a real period and told me to wait and see. Now, since I got up, I've had a lot of mucus discharge, and it's kind of stringy or something? And mild lower back pain and stomach ache. I just feel weird, maybe it's because I'm coming off the pill.. but just to be safe, I bought 2 tests. When would be the right time to take them, and what do you guys think?

Uhm, when you're supposed to get your period, I think? I find it hard to judge. It's possible that if you forget to take the pill for a few days, you might get your period. Your body doesn't see how many days you've taken the pill or when your break week is. I think the chance is small, though, because with the regular pill, you still have some hormones in your body. But it could happen if your ovulation happened to be around that date. You can also just take a test, and if it's negative, take another one a few days later for certainty. Good luck!
