    Am I pregnant? Help please!
    20 y/o. Been having unprotected sex since 8/4. Started birth control 8/12. Started my period 8/26, lasted until 9/12. Didn't exactly always take it on time. Used pull out method, but lately my boyfriend doesn't feel like it. Anyway, I've been feeling like crap for the last few days. Nausea, cramps, bloated tight lower abd, sore breast, lower back pain, headaches, dizzy, frequent urination, constipation, and mood swings. I took a test today, an e.p.t & it was negative. My period is wacked out cause of BC so when would be best to try again? What's the chance I am pregnant? Thank you!:)

    You will need to wait about two weeks after a missed period. We can't give you a percentage chance of being pregnant. If you aren't taking your because pills on time, you need to use a back-up method every time. You might also consider another form of birth control that doesn't require you to remember to take it every day.

    That's the thing, I don't know when my period should be/should have been. It changes every month. That was my first month of BC too

    6 weeks after your last period take a test.

    I would wait till at least 10/15.. Since you are not properly taking the pills, Withdrawal seldom works, boyfriend is not wanting to pull out.

    Have you talked to him about being a father, and the responsibility, talk about how both your lifes will change with a child.

    But you will need to wait about 2 more weeks to test

    I have talked to him, he still thinks it won't happen. But honestly, I think he's doing it on purpose now. && ill wait another 2 weeks. Hopefully I can figure out what's going on if I'm not. I even lost weight, only a few pounds but I haven't changed my eating pattern or exercise. My stomach is fatter, much lower too, there's very little of an indent from abd to low hips. Pretty strange. Thanks guys

    It would be too early for this kind of symptom.

    Agreed, you will see no physcial change at this point if there is a pregnancy.

    And remember it is you that will be pregnant and he that can just walk away. So if he will not use protection, just say no, it is not his choice alone
