Hi there.
So I started birth control pills on the first day of my period, and then used it as my only protection (along with withdrawal). When my period was supposed to arrive I got brown spotting, barely a days worth. I'm on Junel 1/20 and Its a 20 mg estrogen pill, so it's "ultra low dose". According to my OBGYN, skipping and missing periods on this pill is normal and expected, and most women don't have a period while on it. I don't have any pregnancy symptoms either. But I've been taking HPTS and they're all negative. Then, I check 10 hours later and I can see a faint line, (on some of the tests). Why is this? I took a First Response early Result this morning and it was dead negative. Then, I got home and I checked and I saw a faint faint faint line that was grayish/not really pink. What is that? Am I pregnant? Why is it showing up after many hours?
Confused...

Hi Vennisa,
For pregnancy tests, you're only supposed to go off of the immediate result. Checking it 10 hours later will not give you an accurate reading.
I think this piece would be a good read for you right now. You can take a look and see if anything strikes a chord with you: You're Not Pregnant. Why Do You think You Are?
