Stopped Bc Pills Posted: 11-25-07 19:00pm
I posted this in the BC Pill forum - and
realized after it should have gone here -
lol. So pasting it here for everyone's
advice!
Just wanted to hear others opinion - the
middle of last month I decided to stop
using BC pill. I had been taking the BC
pill for about 4 years. Once I stopped, my
period started the next week and lasted
for a week as usual.
However this month it has not started and
I am a week late. Even though my husband
and I had unprotected sex this past month
- I probably wouldn't have considered
pregnancy as the reason for my late period
- it's just the symptoms that I've been
having that have me wondering.
Usually, I have "normal" PMS but for the
past week or so I've been dizzy,
vomitting, bad nausea - symptoms I don't
normally have as PMS. I usually just get a
little bloating and cramps. And like I
said earlier - I already had my period
last month after I stopped the BC pill and
everything was fine.
So, I guess I'm just wondering if anyone
thinks these are just additional symptoms
from not being on BC pill anymore and my
cycle hasn't regulated yet or a possible
pregnancy.
I took a HPT today and it came back
negative.
All comments are appreciated!

It could be your body regulating but if
you had unprotected sex while not on the
pill you could be pregnant. Wait another
week and test again if it doesn't show.

I'd say it's unlikely you're pregnant
because that period you had right after
ending the pills was still a "fake" one.
You have no way of knowing if you ovulated
until you have another period - this time
it will be a real one. It is possible that
you did ovulate and happened to have sex
during that time, however it's more likely
that your cycle is simply delayed because
you got off the pills. It happens a lot.
I agree with the others: wait another week
and test again.
