    Anyone having sex, with supposedly "perfect use" of birth control, can become pregnant. Period.

    Hell, my naughty little 5 year old was conceived while we were using birth control and religiously tracking her cycle. "oops" happens.

    You have not had "perfect use" of the pill, which increases your chances.

    You also cite symptoms which are purely "presumptive"... which means a balding 50 year old male can feel the same symptoms.

    So...

    The ONLY HONEST answer is NOBODY here can tell you whether you are or are not.

    If you are, that's only determined by time and testing... and some women's bodies take more time to build up hormone concentrations.

    That said... every med student who ever took a class "self diagnosed" themselves into a "disease of the week"...

    Stress alone (worried about preg) can cause your symptoms.

    Wish I could tell you definitively "yes" or "no"... absolutely NOBODY worth their weight in knowledge will tell you "yes" or "no" here...

    Yes... you could be. You had sex. Imperfect use of BC increases your odds, but its better than nothing. Your "symptoms" are not unique to being pregnant...

    So "maybe or maybe not" is as good as its going to get.

    Now its time and testing...

    You should probably take a pregnancy test or go to the doctor for that one

    If you are having sex of course you could be. Even on birth control people can get pregnant, and if you don't take the pills exactly as directed,

    I would not do anything without talking to your doctor

    Don't stop taking the pills as it will make your cycle wackier than it already is. Just wait until the end of this pack, then if you get your period you will have your answer. If not, then take a pregnancy test.
