My doctor put me on birth control pills to try to regulate my period after going 15 straight months with a completely irregular period. I was never good with the pill, I took my first pill on the 24th of January and then followed it with 4 more pills but not consecutively meaning I took the pill on the 24th, 25th, and 26th, forgot the 27th , took it the 28th, and 29th and then just kept forgetting we had a lot going on, anyways those are the only birth control pills I have taken besides the depo provera shot in November of 2005, could those 5 pills still be giving me side effects on the 14th of February, I am having some tugging sensations in my lower abdomen and also feel completely wiped out all the time no matter how much sleep I get and some foods are making me sick, this isn't me thinking of it too much I just noticed all of this the other day. My boobs are still really sore on the sides and underneath my armpits, is this just the pills or could there be something else.

Definitely sounds like pregnancy. Take a home pregnancy test. If it comes out negative, take one with your first morning urine. If that one is negative as well, wait a few days and have your family doctor draw some blood to check for pregnancy that way. Good luck!

Is it possible that your pregnant? The pills you took could be affecting your hormone levels making you feel crappy. Could it also be your getting ready to start your period, if your irregular. I would take a home pregnancy test and if the symtoms don't go away in the next 48hrs or are followed by any fever/vomitting go to the doctor. Happy valentines!

Hinestly, it sounds more like the flu than anything else...but yeah, there isnt enough coverage in those few pills to prevent a pregnancy....they advise you use a back up BC method for the first MONTH...so a few days of pills wont do it.
