I Am Worried...as Usual!
Posted: 09-18-05 10:34am

Question girls! I was on birth control for about three years.. I got off on sept.4th because it was my last refill and my doctor couldnt get me in till oct. So im not currently on it.. Now do I have a chance of getting pregnant? Even if its only been not even a month or am I just worrying for nothing?

Well I already did this month (was sexually active) a few times..And I know that sounds bad not using protection but I was on the pill for so long I figured I had no chances of getting pregnant unless I was off for months.. I am worried and have about 10days untill my period is suppose to come so I let everyone know!

Well if you don't get your period take a test and if you do get ur period use protection.

you have such a high chance of becoming pregnant when you just come off the pill.This is because your body is trying to adjust.

Should I be concerned or are my chances really high? For some reason I dont know why but I thought there was no way or a chance for me to get pregnant..But my nipples have been really sore and I just came down with a cold and a bad cough and I never get a bad cough! I dont know if im just worried and thinking that everything thats wrong is because im pregnant! You know some people freak out and make themselves have symptoms..I just dont want to be that person.. But I was just wonderin if anyone had a similar experience before!!... Thanks everyone for your replys it is really conmforting for me! :)

I was on the pill for almost 12 years. Went off of them for a year. Started them again in march during my divorce. Quit them again in july, because my fiance and I both thought since I had been on them so long it would take us a while to get pregnant. Wrong! I quit my pills july 12th. I was supposed to start them again july 16th or 17th. I got pregnant around july 26th. Some women can miss only one pill and get pregnant.
