Question:
I am not sure if this is your area of study, but most of the people on your site already had mail boxes too full! I am a 20 yr old female and I am currently taking Lunelle, which is a monthly contraceptive injection. My doctor told me that I would be protected from pregnancy after my 2nd injection, but I decided to wait until after my 3rd injection before having intercourse with my partner without a condom. About 3 days after my 3rd injection I had intercourse, and then about 9 days later I noticed some spotting on my underwear. My question is: could this be a sign of pregnancy and implatation? I had some irregular bleeding during the first month of taking Lunnele, but none after my second injection.
Also, the Lunelle medication comes with a trmedously large needle for an intramuscular injection, but my nurse practioner has been using a small needle on me because I am thin. She says that this is still an intramuscular injection. Could this have reduced the effectiveness of the medication? Please write back ASAP, as this issue is causing me worry. Thank you so much for being available to ask questions!
