my gf finally got on birth control about two month ago. every since then we have been scared of her getting pregnant because she has been getting symptoms. we do have unprotected sex but then again she ends up getting her period. matter of fact, she got her period like 5 days ago and now she is having morning sickness. she begins to throw up and is very tired. this is her first time being on birth control and we had a scare like this last month but she did get her period. so i dont know what to do. we have the pregnancy test but too afraid to take it. can anyone give any advise as to what it is?

Some girls react differently to different types of birth control pills. I wouldn't worry much about it. I also did the same and they changed my birth control pill. Take the Pregnancy Test, just for safe heart but I suggest her to talk to her doctor. She may be having a reaction to the pill and need the perscription changed.

You are afraid to take the pregnancy but you are on Yahoo making yourself go crazy, asking people wheather or not she is pregnant.......Just take the test. Nobody on here can tell you if someone is pregnant or not.
I really doubt she is, the "morning sickness" could be a side effect from the birth control and if it is then she needs to talk to her doctor about going on a different kind. It could also be in her head, sometimes when a person has it in their head that they are pregnant, they will start to show symptoms of pregnancy.
But again these are all just guesses and the only way to know, is to take the test.

I know a lot of girls who were on birth control and reacted poorly to it. And it's for the reason that the birth control makes your body THINK it's pregnant because it's stopping the ovulation. (That's how it prevents you from getting pregnant). When I was on the shot I threw up a lot, and had no sex drive, was irritable, tired, and just all out BLAH. My boyfriend (now husband) thought that I was insane.
But take a test and use a condom to be on the safe side if you're worried about being pregnant.

Some people have very strong reactions to the hormones in the pill and everything that you have mentioned could just be side effects.
If I were you I would get her to take a pregnancy test. They aren't expensive and will relieve your mind. I would also get her to see a doctor. If it is just the effects of the pill it's not something that she has to live with. The doctor will be able to put her on a different hormone or change her birthcontrol completely.

The pill that she is on may not be the one for her. Go back to docs and change pill asap. There are hundreds are different ones or she can get an IUD which is inserted permanently for 3-5 years and and then there is no forgetting to take a tablet or scares of getting pregnant.

The birth control pill messes with your body so it is quite possible her symptoms are caused from it. It can take months for your body to get used to the pill.

you say she's been on birth control for 2 months.. first off the doctor should of told her that she needed to be using a condom for the first 3 months.. cause it takes time for the body to adjust.. side affects of the pill are nausea, weight gain, sometimes being really tired cause of the body chemistry change...
Stressing out might be the other reason for her getting sick... chill out.. relax and go to the doctor.. well take her to the doctor.. she needs to be checked cause it sounds like the pill doesnt agree with her.. might have to switch to another form...
