Could Light Pinke Bleeding In Stools With Bloating, Cramps And Headache While Being On Birth Control Suggest Pregnancy?

Hi! I am on birth control (Sronyx - Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol) for the past two months. I just changed to this one about a month ago, however few days ago I had unprotected sex, I take my pills regularly but maybe have taken 1/2 an hour after my specific time. The past two days i m experiencing bowel movement pink bleeding (light pink) Could I be pregnant? I am stil experiencing bloating/headache/cramps... What could be the cause? I m just wondering could I be pregnant?

Hello,

If you have taken this pill within 72 hours after sexual intercourse then there are fewer chances of getting pregnant. The sooner one takes it after sexual intercourse the more effective it will be but not 100% effective .
If you have missed your periods by a week or so then I suggest you go for a pregnancy test. Sometimes these OCP’s can delay in periods.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Naira Jahangir, OB and GYN Specialist
