Okay here's my question... last month in July, I had my period on the day it usually comes around the 15-17. Got it on the 17 lasted 7 days straight. Was good for about two weeks then this month August on the 6 & 7 I bled for two days which isn't normal. Then boom it stopped. To add to that I was getting this really weird tingly sensation in my abdomen area the day it stopped bleeding and the day after Kind of like I was being tickled from the inside? That's the only way I can explain it. Now I feel sickly throughout the day, definitely moody, bloated, and my bowel movements aren't the same! I just recently got onto my birthcontrol pills and I missed the last two weeks of the pack... is there a possibility I might be pregnant? During this time my partner and I weren't using protection because I was on the birthcontrol.

Pregnancy is a possibility, but the symptoms you're describing aren't conducive to pregnancy, unless you're a few months along.

Movement isn't normally felt until you're in your 20th week of pregnancy, so a tickling feeling in your stomach this early on is not a sign of pregnancy. The bleeding you experienced has many possible explanations. Feeling sick, moody, and bloated, all have other possibilities.

The fact that you missed the last two weeks of your birth control pack could explain all your symptoms. In fact, that's what I'd bet is going on. But of course, missing your last two weeks of birth control also puts you at a higher risk of pregnancy.

You'll have to wait until your next period is due, which may be off because of the birth control and your failure to take it. If you do miss your period, try a home pregnancy test. Follow all the directions on the test.

So your saying that I probably feel this way because of the birth control?

I'm saying you probably feel this way because you missed your birth control.

The fact is, that's just an educated guess. I can't tell you for sure that you're not pregnant, because it is a possibility, but the symptoms you're feeling would not be conducive to pregnancy this early on.

Still, you could be pregnant, it's just too early to tell, and there's no way anyone on the internet would be able to tell you for sure.

You'll have to wait and see.
