    PLEASE HELP! I have been taking "Tri Sprintec" for over a year and a half.
    PLEASE HELP! I have been taking "Tri Sprintec" for over a year and a half, close to two years. My boyfriend of 4 months normally would have sex with a condom. But last week we haven't. I take my pill everyday at 7pm.

    Am I pregnant? Sometimes I feel a bit nauseous, and either I'm gaining weight or my belly is getting big. Please help! I'm about to run to my clinic!

    How old are you?
    You would not be showing signs of pregnancy after a week.
    You are taking birth control and a condom? If you are this nervous about pregnancy the best thing is no sex.

    OK so if you are having a fit about having sex with no condom last week and the possibility of pregnancy, why would you do it again with no condom?

    I took my pill perfectly too. We also used condoms EVERY time. I have 2 boys that resulted from that.

    Sex = pregnancy. Contraception lowers the odds but does not completely erase the odds.

    The best thing for you is no sex. You are too young for pregnancy and it looks like that may be where you're headed.

    Guess what, you could be pregnant, but from before, Condoms have a 2 to 18 percent failure rate and the pill is not 100 percent effective either.

    Many women get pregnant while using both, ( it can happen)

    But without condom it increases the risk.

    You at one week would have no signs of pregnancy what so ever.

    You are going to just have to wait, and see if you miss your next period. If you miss it, then wait 2 weeks and do a pregnancy test with first urine of the morning.

    I would be more worried about the dozens of times you have sex with a condom, since those are possible pregnancy also.
