On Birth Control Pills, Had Unprotected Sex, Now Spotting. Is It Normal?

Okay so I tend to freak more and more everyday, I need answers. Almost a 3 week ago I had unprotected sex and not sure if im pregnant. Im on birth control, but almost week before I had sex I finished the pack and had to wait on doctor to refill it. I started taking new box day after sex and I have now takin 3 of the last week, but am only spotting. So with it being last week of the box and im spotting does that mean im okay or no?

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The chances of pregnancy have always been there with unprotected sex.
You should consult a gynaecologist and get your urine, blood test and ultrasonography to rule out pregnancy.
Spotting may occur with discontinuation of pills.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
