Can u get pregnant on the pill?

[StephniRey]

I have just started taking the pill.  My gyno prescribed it because I had been on the depo and was having irregular periods.  I have only been taking it for about five days, and I was just wondering if I could get pregnant while on it? Because on the 11th I believe I started ovulating (this is the first time since I quit the depo) and I am wondering if the combination of the pill, and the provera the hospital put me on kind of shocked my body back into normalcy.  My partner and I want to have a child, and I am just wondering if it is likely that I could ovulate and get pregnant while on the pill since I haven't even been on it that long.

when you're pregnant, you dont get your period. most women get spotting, i didnt though. i wasnt able to eat much, id be starving like crazy and eat a half a piece of bread and be full the whole day. theres kindof like an instinct thing in your mind.. i dont knoww about you but i dont have to keep track of my periods cuz it just clicks in my brain telling me its gonna come soon..  its kinda the same thing. i had constant nausea for a couple months and cramps, often going to the washroom, mixed emotions like mad sad happy in a really short time..

the thing with the pill is that is kindof does the same thing to you. im on it and this is the 2nd time i take it and youre most likely to gain weight and get worse headaches and nausea because it screws around with your hormones like if you were pregnant almost.. also on the pill just like when youre pregnant, your breasts get reaaaal sore. when i was pregnant it was almost unbearable lol..

i hope ive anwered a few questions :)

I have missed 2 pills & took them the next morning, and my other pills at regular time. Can you get pregnant like that with unprotected sex?

Can you get pregnant after only being on Tri-Previfem for 2 weeks? Claimed to hae never missed and roughly the exact same time eery time taken. Curiosity for my Great niece. I worry about her and shes scared to look up any info herself. I dont know much about that specific pill and was wandering if anyone did?
TY.

You absolutely can get pregnant if you are on the pill ... my child is testament to that.  

If you are taking antibiotics, BE SURE to use a condom or other means of contraception along with your pills.

Years ago, it was not made known to women that antibiotics could wipe out the effectiveness of your birth control pills.  Tetracycline is particularly potent.  

After a serious auto accident and two following surgeries ( and because I had heart issues and the risk of infection could be deadly to me ) I was on a heavy regimen of antibiotics ( including Tetracycline ) and steroids.   I also missed taking two of my pills because I was in the hospital without access to them.   Nine months later, I was a single mom at the ripe old age of 22.

We used to think ( and some women still do ) that birth control pills are a fool-proof shield against unplanned pregnancy.   Not so.  Be very, very careful if you are put on antibiotics.
