I doubt your pregnant.  With any hormonal method, you can have a fluctuation in your hormones which can make you spot.  However, pregnancy can occur on the patch depending on someone's weight.  If you weigh more than 198, the patch can't penetrate the body fat and there isn't enough hormone to keep from releasing an egg.  Some herbs can affect the Pill...St. John's Wort is one.  But I don't think it will affect the patch because it's metabolized in the body differently.

I am 41 and had one last year.  You have to make sure you use protection because all you are doing is burning the lining of your uterus, so you still have your ovaries producing eggs which could still be fertilized during sex except they could implant in your fallopian tubes causing an etopic pregnancy.  I definitely would recommend it.  The only drawback is that you still have all the symptoms except the bloating of your period.  The good thing is when ever you are cranky you can just say "it must be my time" because you don't really know when that is anymore!!  However, I do have a light discharge once a month that I have to wear a pantyliner for.  But it is definitely worth it, nothing like having a period

yes you can be pregnant. You need to go see your doctor.

you could be right and then you got a big problem.  Go to your gyn and have it checked out and then ask if there is some alternative to latex condoms.  That is what most if not all the condoms on the market are made of. I have heard that they used to use lambskin or something like that  Ask you docotr or pharmacist about it.  Good Luck

Was this just last month? And did you get periods before you started taking it? And If you were sexually active in that one month have you taken a pregnancy test? One month usually doesn't do the trick for protecting yourself from pregnancy...Good luck.

Sounds like you are preggers. They are like 99.9% positive and you have taken two so there is only a 99.95% chance you are pregnant

I agree with all answers listed above. But to make sure, go see your OBGYN.

I also have a retroverted uterus, and had pregnancy problems, I had great Drs, but they were making a mistake, they had been using the camera they insert to view the uterus etc. for any other problems, well turns out that does not give the best results, another Dr. I went to did a regular sonogram that showed I had other female issues, that had caused my problems. He stated it would take me longer than some women to get pregnant, but I did in time! I am not a doctor but my 1st thought is u should give yourself and your body a break, your 2nd pregnancy seems to soon, your not giving your body time to recoup! Also mental stress can make getting pregnant a problem all that stress effects our bodies. I would suggest u take good care of yourself, see your obgyn on a regular basis, as for the other health issues I am sure your Dr. can answer all questions. I bet u have been told u r able to have a baby, but it may not be the easiest, u will have to stay off your feet, meaning not alittle but almost thru the entire pregnancy! In bed feet up, even if it drives u crazy!! believe me it can get boring!! but after 2 miscarriages u know this is important. I dont know if u have to work or if u do, but u will need to be home I cant stress this enough, you will have to be in the bed when u become pregnant again!!!!! U will have no choice, its for your health and that of your unborn child, I pray that u get to have a baby, and I believe u will, but 1st take care of yourself, eat well, exercise, vitamins daily and see your Dr. often and ask every question u can think of, take notes and bring them to the dr. it helps me to do that, otherwise seems I just go blank and forget all I wanted to ask! Good luck with everything.

you could be pregnant that is a good possibility that you are but i would go to your doctor to make sure there is nothing serous going on ASAP.

my periods were crazy too.. and in november it hadnt shown up so i took a test which had a very faint line.. on my way to work i picked up a digital test at kmart. and i did it on my break.. and what would you know that very faint line meant pregnant. the digitals are nice because its either pregnant or not pregnant. it spells it out for you. no little lines, or wondering if thats a second line. my suggestion obviously, get a digital one. it'll tell you the truth. then visit your doctor if it says pregnant. they'll do another test to completely confirm and talk to you about prenatal care. good luck

I've used ortho-tricyclen but have not used Alesse before.  I've never had any problems with the ortho.  If you're having all of these issues with the current birth control, stop taking them and also let your doctor know this, they'll probably prescribe another type.  If you're looking for a lower dose try ortho-tricyclen low, that's what I'm on now and I'm not having any issues with this one either.  Good luck!

Perhaps the epidural was placed incorrectly.\nTalk over your concerns with your OB GYN.\nThey generally provide considerable relief when done properly.

Have you been exercising? If not, talk to your doctor before staring any exercise program. If so, then keep it up..you may have to modify some exercises as your pregnancy progresses
