I was on Yasmin for about 8 months. I stopped taking them early Septmeber, I got my period the 10th i had it for 5 days. Two days later I started to bleed a little bit, very lightly for about a day or two. Ever since then i have yet to get my period. The last couple of days my boobs hurt a little bit when I grab them. I have been gasy, moody, I have been eating more...All symptoms of both getting your period and pregnancy. So my question is pregnant or is it something else?? * Me and my boyfriend do have unprotected sex alot and he does get off in me* The people I have asked and talked to say you can't get pregnant for atleast 2 to 3 months after you get off the pill!?!?!?!?!? Please help!!!!!!

you could be! The pill isn't 100% effective remember! I missed like, one pill last month, and now I think I might be pregnant too! And i have a 9mo boy... so... yeah, take it from me, it is possible! Just grab a pgcy test from your local drugstore. They use the same test at the doctor's office. If the test says your pregnant (take it a few days before your expected period or a few after, whatever it says) then confirm it with your doctor.

Pregnancy symptoms usually don't come about until 6 - 8 weeks of pregnancy. Sure you could be pregnant if you've had unprotected sex. From what my doc has told me, the first month off the pill is usually the most fertile month, but also a month you should avoid conceiving. Wait until after the date you miss your period, and then test for pregnancy.

Thats a lie. You can get pregnant any time you have sex, even when you use protection.
While some women have a harder time cycling regularly, and thus catching their ovulation for a few months after stoping any hormonal birth control, others get pregnant the second they miss their first pill.
Penis in, baby out. Thats how it works.
Chances are you're body is still trying to regulate and you're just skipping a period. But in all likelihood you could very well be pregnant, since thats what happens when you have sex.
If you dont want the baby dont make it.

Best bet is to get a pregnancy test. There is no way to know if and when you start to ovulate. If you are not on any birth control method then conception is possible. I would advise you that if you are not wanting to get pregnant then use some protection. Condoms will protect you against STD's as well. Who ever told you that you can not get pregnant for 2 to 3 months is giving you bad information.

how long you can get pregnant after getting off birth control is unknown.. its varies b/t people so don't listen to that. you best bet is to take a pregnancy test because unfortunately symptoms of having your period and being pregnant can be the same for people. the only way to be sure is to take a test. I prefer you take one at a doctors office being that it is kind of early and i haven't been able to trust pregnancy test in the past.

It's not exactly true that you can't get pregnant quickly when you get off of the pill. My first child was conceived the first month after I quit the pill. It's not exactly a common occurrence, but I can tell you from experience, it happens. Get a pregnancy test over the counter.

The people you talked to are wrong. Go to the drug store TODAY and get a test.
