    I think Im pregnant.
    Okay so I just ended my period on the 5th. That same night I had sex but he pulled out. We still got scared and bought the plan be pill. We bought the pill on the 7th. I took the first pill and then that night we had unprotected sex and he came in me, we figured since I had the plan be pill it wouldn't be a big deal. I was supposed to take the next pill the next day but I lost it so I didn't end up taking it. Ive been feeling very tired, Ive had naseua, my breasts are sore and just not feeling like myself. Idk if Im actually pregnant or I'm just scaring the out of myself. Im not suppsed to start my period for another week or two. Idk what to do... is it to early to take a pregnancy test?? PLEASE HELP! :confused:

    Hi,
    There are pregnancy tests at your local pharmacy that are "early detection" tests. You don't have to wait until your period is missed. If you are pregnant "enough" to feel symptoms, you are pregnant enough to take the test. You might be scaring yourself, but see for yourself if there is any Human Growth Hormone in your urine. If there is, you are pregnant. The stress from not knowing can produce some of the symptoms you are feeling, i.e. nausea and fatigue. Good luck!

    Okay thanks.. so you don't think its to early to take a pregnancy test? I was going to go to planned parenthood this Monday or Tuesday and take a test but I'm afraid its to early to get a test done. I hate waiting around I just want to know its all I think about..

    Give it several more days at least, or another a week. IF you were to be pregnant, it takes several days for implantation to be complete and the early tests will possibly pick up a positive result about 8-10 days passed ovulation... or about 4-5 days before the start of your next period. Even at that time, most will not have enough hcg for an accurate result.
