i have been on femcon fe for about 3 yrs now. i take it regularly and have protected intercourse with my bf of 5 yrs reguarly using a condom as well.2 weeks ago i experienced bleeding. my gyno told me that it was due to me missing 2 pills during the 2nd week. i of course double up and took the precautions. he tested if i was pregnant and did a cat scan. i am not he said.he told me then to double up the remaining 3rd week pills so i take 2 each day and also the sugar pills. however this is my question, during this doubling up i received me full period. scared that i was still bleeing and going to start a new pack..i waited 2 days to start the new pack. i was a sunday starter and i waited till tues to start a new pack. i also had protected sex tonight with a condom and have taken 3 days of the 1st week of active pills in my new pack. should i be worried about pregnancy? should i consult with my gyno?

Yes, I recommend calling your gyn doctor for further instructions. In the meantime, continue taking your pills on a daily basis.
