If u somehow got pregnant while on the pill, would you skip your period or would u still withdrawal bleed?

I did get pregnant while on the pill (we used condoms, too) and my periods stopped completely. Luckily she was the most awesome baby ever.

Depends on your body, really. The sudden drop in progesterone from stopping BC could cause a little spotting/bleeding, but your body would still be producing its own natural progesterone so it wouldn't be enough of a drop to trigger an actual period. Or there might be zero bleeding at all. Keep in mind that BC is just artificial versions of hormones your body produces naturally during pregnancy.

Could be either. It wouldn't be a period, but there can be bleeding.
