Do the Pills Trick You Body Into Thinking Your Pregnant? Posted: 11-30-04 13:58pm
Ok, im very paranoid about being pregnant
all the time. Im on birth control pills
(ortho tri cyclen lo), and take them every
day same time, to my knowledge. The last
time I had sex was sept.6, and we used a
spermicidal lubricated condom (my fiance'
also has a rare case of pituitary/thyroid
disease, where his Dr. Is pretty sure he
cant have kids without meds.).
Ok, so the last time we had intercouse was
sept. 6, then I got my period sept. 22
(on time). In oct. We "fooled" around
(i.E. Dry humping, but one of us always
had underwear on, etc.), I was on
antibiotics for a few days this month, so
I was worried (again), about being preg.
So when I went to the drs. Oct.21 I got a
blood preg test done = neg. (got my
period oct. 20...On time). Then when I
went back to the drs. (other med
reasons), she took another blood preg test
(nov.17, same day got my period; on time),
came back neg.
Last monday (2nd day of new pack), I
dropped my pill, and (this is why im on
meds and see a therapist), flipped out,
but then I found it, put it in my mouth,
looked in a mirror and saw it on there
(afraid that I didnt take it though), on
that friday my fiance' and I had oral
sex.
This week however (2nd week of pills), my
breast are a little bit larger, and
sometimes they hurt (but im sure its from
pushing/poking them). Im scared that I
might be pregnant (esp. If I didnt take
that pill last week like I thought).
However, we haven't had intercourse since
the beginning of sept.
Is it normal for your breast to get bigger
during your cycle? They usually become
sore and swollen about 10 days before my
period, but its over 2wks till im due
again. Is this just the pills tricking
my body into thinking its preg? If I
weren't on the pill, this would be around
the time I would be ovulating.
Any advice???
* started paxil cr last week, so im
thinking my hormones are messed up or im
retaining fluid *

One other thing, my fiance' never
ejaculates near my vagina, may be precum,
but with his condition, he probably doesnt
have an sperm in there (i hope). *(he
never goes inside of me.)

It sounds like you have about a zero
chance of being pregnant. Sounds like it
is just the hormones. I don't know if
it's necessarily that your body thinks it
is pregnant as much as simple changes in
hormones can cause those side effects.
Stress can bring on different changes in
hormones as well.. So I think you can
relax

I think your chances of being pregnant are
about zero.The more you stress about
this,the worse it will be.(i'm sure your
therapist has told you that!)hormones are
quirky things.One month you may have no
problems with your cycle and the next,you
are a hormonal mess.
If you and your honey have not had
intercourse in 2 months-you could not be
pregnant from dry humping,especially if
you had underwear on!!Try to focus on
something else-your job,school,the
holidays-whatever-distract yourself from
the possibility of being pregnant.(sounds
as if that is not a possibility for the
two of you right now-maybe something to
discuss with your therapist????)good luck
to you!Patty

He didnt ejaculate down there when we did
"hump" and I am taking the pill and we
didnt "directly hum" on each others
genitals, plus like I said, theres a
strong possibility he can't have
children.
So I would still be ok. Right?

Sorry,but your chances for conception with
your underwear on is nil!!I really do not
think that is possible because the fabric
would absorb the semen.Maybe I am wrong on
that one,unless some guy has marathon
swimmers that can swim through the fabric
and up into the vagina and to the
egg.Sounds like "the incredible journey"
to me!Patty
