Hi drat,

A withdrawal bleed or a period both tend to indicate you are not pregnant but it does sound like the effectiveness of birth control will have been very much affected, and you very much could have become pregnant if you were unlucky.

Have you thought about changing your method to something long acting? It sounds like taking a pill everyday isn't working.
