Pregnant or Concerned
I have been using the patch for about one year. I stopped using it about three months ago, in hopes to become pregnant. Well, I hadn't had a period since November. I thought my period started a couple of days ago, but it was very light, and it was there only when I used the bathroom. Then it just stopped. I took a pregnancy test today, which was negative. (I had taken one when I was pregnant with my second child and the positive line was very faint, although I was six weeks pregnant) I know that doctors are not prescribing the patch yet, because of the unknown levels of hormones, so I'm just wondering what I should do, if I could be pregnant.
I would see your ob/gyn and make sure that you are not pg some times your hcg levels can be low and blood testing is the most accurate. Good Luck!
