a quick question

I just started taking birth control, my doctor started me on a low dosage of Nordette. aShe said something about coming in and changing it to a higher dosage if things work out fine. Well my question is......what if the dosage is to low can I get pregnant and how do I know if its not enough for me?

The low dosage is still high enough to protect against pregnancy. As far as dosing being "too low," that's usually just occurs when bleeding/spotting occurs. But it won't affect pregnancy.
