you really never know with birth control.

go test yourself.

If you've had unprotected sex since you've
been off the period, you could definitely
be pregnant.
If not, then it's probaby just the
hormones. I wouldn't worry too much.

So the anwer to your original question is,
Yes, you can get pregnant, but a late
period so soon after quitting birth
control does not mean you are pregnant.

Well, first you should go to the doc and
get a blood test to make sure you are
pregnant. Than think about how to tell!
Your doc will be able to counsel you on
how your age will effect your pregnancy.
