Nausea, dizziness, tiredness headaches and loss of appetite

I am on the pill but occasionally take it late. My boyfriend and I do not use other means of contreception. I also occasionally have diarrhea so this could effect the performance of my pill. In the last two and a half weeks since my last period (which was lighter and shorter than usual) i have had nausea which comes and goes quite regularly - sometimes it becomes overbearing and i start to feel waek and dizzy and get the urge of being sick but I have only actually vomited twice. My appetite has really diminished and I am tired almost all the time no matter how much sleep I get. I have also experienced quite bad dizziness which completely clouds my vision and makes me feel like I will blackout especially when I get up after sitting or lying and have occasional headaches. My breasts are also very tender but this usually happens me in the run up to my period (which is due next week). Is there a chance I could be pregnant? this started about two days after my last period. If I am not pregnant what are the other liklihoods?? It is too early to take a test yet but I am really concerned about this so any help advice or ideas of what is wrong with me would be much appreciated! thank you. also just to add - it is not anaemia as I have regular blood tests because i suffered from anaemia as a teenager.

i started to take my pill to stop my period as I got the pains a week before the week during and after and they are so heavy i go through 3 pads on top of eachother in my periods haha!

When I came off my pill this did happen to me! I came off cause I was on the wrong one and they didnt notice it would cause me to have a stroke, cause I suffer from migrains and can only have one hormone in me or something if that makes sense? Ermm but everyone is different.
I forgot to take it most times as well, but I was also pregnant, but didnt find out till 22 weeks later, and as I was ill due to my migrains, eating disorder stress alot basically. I terminated it and REGRET it to the max.

I advise to take a test to be on the safe side and or ask your GP for a blood test instead.

All the bestt :) Remember you can have false negative HPT. So a blood test would be better!

Good Luckk

I would say that if you started having all of these symptoms right after your last period that was whacky then I would say you could probably take a test and it should be accurate if you got pregnant last cycle. Birth control can make your hormones change and that could definitely be causing a ton of your symptoms also. If you test comes up negative then wait to see what happens with your next period and then take another test. Good luck!
