Are you feeling any morning sickness? Nausea and vomiting can be one of the first signs of pregnancy.

You should have been protected by the bc if you started your bc in Nov. But I guess there is always a chance? Do you want a baby? I don't think you are but I guess just wait and see.

I doubt you'd be pregnant while ON your period after just getting off birth control.

No. You are still protected during your period while on birth control.

Your body has certain times when you would naturally ovulate. That is different for every woman, but an 'average' time frame is if you have a 28 day cycle, you would ovulate on day 14.

If you have stopped taking birth control again though, it may take your body awhile to get back into it's natural swing of ovulation, regulating hormones, etc. It can take a few months before that happens. But all things considered, you have a better chance of getting pregnant when you are not on birth control than when you are. Smile

Are you on the pill because your periods are irregular? You should see your doctor for a pre-pregnancy check-up. S/he will have some better advice for you.

Good luck!

Ok this case is too complicated. Speak to your dr. no one can help you here in regards to your irrgularity and your chances of pregnancy.

Yes if your periods are irregular you need to talk to your dr. Being on bc will not help you get pregnant. But may help regulate your periods, don't know if that will continue when you stop again. Please talk to your dr they can tell you so much more than we can. Good Luck!!

Yes Emma2 and anniek are right you should go to a doctor for this. This can be a heredity problem as well but its better if you go talk to a doctor.
