Some people say that they have always become pregnant while on birth control. How and when do they know when they are pregnant if they are still on birth control ? and you're not suppose to take any birth control if you are pregnant. So if you're on birth control and continue to take it, but become pregnant, how would you know? I'm just curious.........i'm not pregnant, but i've just always wondered about this and would like some answers.

I got pregnant while on the pill. I knew I was pregnant when my period didn't come. I asked my doctor about the fact that I had continued to take my pills after conception without realiznig I was pregnant. He said it was no big deal, that the pills coudln't hurt the baby (unless you take mass quantities). But of course, I stopped taking the pill as soon as I found out. So...to answer your question, I knew I was pregnant when I had no period.

First of all some people lie and say they were taking birth control and got pregnant so that they do not look like they were being irresponsible.Or to avoid getting judged.Although it is possible to get pregnant while taking birth control especially if not taking the birth control correctly.To find out if you are pregnant even if you are on birth control you can take a pregnancy test.If you take a over the counter one and it comes out negative and you believe that you are pregnant you can go to the doctor and they can do a blood test.

I got pregnant on the Birth control pill. I didn't know because I stopped taking it right after I conceived (Wanted to switch to the patch). My doctor said my period might be lighter or not come for a month or 2 so when mine didn't come I thought nothing of it...until I started getting nauseous and my period hadn't come in a few months. My doctor said that it wouldn't have harmed the baby if I was still on the pill. It's only hormones. So as long as you don't take an abnormal amount you're fine.

You still have your period while you're on most birth control pills. So if you skip your period even while on the pills, that is one major indication. There are other indications of being pregnant too such as sore breasts and nausea. Those are the 3 biggest warning signs. If you suspect, take a pregnancy test immediately and if you're pregnant stop the pill.

I'm not sure about the whole birth control thing. I know it's very rare for women to get pregnant on the pill. I know there have been case where women have had a lght period every month while pregnant and that's how some women didn't even know.
