    Is there a chance I'm pregnant?
    I haven't took my birth control in a couple weeks
    But recently I had unprotected sex & he pulled out when he had a orgasm & right after I took birth control. Can I still be a chance I'm pregnant ?

    To be effective, because pills must be taken every day. Taking one after sex does nothing for you, so yes, you could get pregnant from unprotected sex now. (And "pulling out" is useless as birth control method)

    Even if I started taking it everyday since that happened?

    Yup. It's like you started over, and you need at least a full month of taking pills (one cycle) to be safe before having sex..

    You would no longer be protected. You cannot miss taking even one pill during the cycle.

    The first symptom of pregnancy is a missed period.

    Nope, not typically. Anything else can be related to other illnesses or conditions.

    I was due to start my period last weekend (13/14th July) but I started getting period like cramps on the 11th but no sign of periods. My breasts also got a little bigger and was hurting more than they normally do. I knew something was up as usually I only get my cramps and sore breasts on my second day of my periods. So I waited, the cramps stayed there and my breasts started to get really sore and sensitive. This weekend, I was already a week late, so we went to buy to hpt's and I tested on Sunday morning. Both were positive, so I'm going to the doctor this week just to be sure everything is fine and 100% so I'm guessing that it is different for every woman, me and my fiancé both got a feeling that I was pregnant and I know myself so I knew that the cramps and sore breasts were symptoms. There are a lot of symptoms you can get, but not all women gets symptoms at all before a missed period. Since yesterday I started feeling extremely tired and can't get through my normal day without wanting to sleep. So I guess best would be to take a hpt :) hope this helps!
