    Am I pregnant?
    I had unprotected sex, using the pull-out method about four days before ovulation and am currently two days late on my period. I've been experiencing my regular period like symptoms (cramps, bloating, tender breasts, etc.) as well as a burning sensation and tightness in my uterus, some slight lower back pain and frequent tiredness. I am on the pill but I heard that if you do not take it at the same time everyday it may not be as effective. I take it whenever it pops into my mind which is usually between 10pm-1am everyday. I was wondering if I could possibly be pregnant. I'd like to know if there is a possibility before I take a test.

    Yes, there's definitely a possibility. Any time you have sex, even if you use protection, even if you use it correctly, even if you used more than 2 forms of birth control, pregnancy is possible. There is no form of birth control on the market that's 100% effective.

    Wait until your period is at least 2 weeks late, then test using first morning urine.

    It is possible, pull out really is not a method, or one that works, still plenty of sperm in the early fluids. After that, the pill is effective, but not 100 percent, so there is a change.

    Still sounds like period is coming just late, but only time will tell that.

    No way to test for pregnancy at this point, you have to be at least 2 week late to test. And then always use first urine of the morning

    She doesn't take her pill as prescribed, just whenever she remembers to take it. For the pill to be effective it has to be taken the same time very day. So that, and the fact that he didn't use a condom, used the pull out method which isn't even a method of birth control, means that pregnancy is a very good possibility in my opinion.
