Is it still possible to be pregnant?
So I have unprotected sex with my boyfriend alot. My last period was August 14 and at the time I was on birth control but I stopped taking it bc when I got to the brown pills I never saw any blood. I have spotting for two days the week before my period was supposed to start which is very weird for me bc my body is usually like clockwork no spotting just a very heavy flow. So I waited until my I finished the brown pills on the 7th and then I took two hpts which were both negative I then had two blood tests done one on the 4th just to see if early detection would work bc I did see spotting and then one on the 11th both came back negative. I am wondering if I tested to early or if im just not pregnant my HCG levels were very low like 0.1. I have been having some symptoms but really they could be from something else and I dont want my mind playing tricks on me but I have had no signs of AF and no im 10 days late is it possible for the HCG just not to show up?
Thanks for your input and I had only been on birth control a month I started in july but I got off bc the hormones were driving me insane and i thought that I was already pregnant. But im wondering if bc I was on the pill I just ovulated later than I expected and threw my whole counting off because I never completely miss a period and there is no sign of AF. I am a little concerned bc this morning I woke up and I usually have great skin but I had patches of dry skin on my stomach and on the backs of my arms which I am attributing to the weather change but I have never gotten this before do you know if this has anything to do with pregnancy? PS I am going to take a test first thing tmrw morning!
I'm a little confused. You haven't taken any birth control since aug 14???
did you not take it because you were afraid you were pregnant, or are you trying???
I guess it doesn't really matter.
I think some women take longer for the home tests to work.
Also stopping taking birth control can delay your flow. Had you been on birth control for a long time?? Sometimes you will miss a peroid, or have light spotting if you have taken pills for many months. I was on birth control pills for years, and i had all that "funny stuff" happen too.
It is possible to be pregnant since all the unprotected sex, however, You probablly aren't if you had been on the pill for at least some time. It usually takes a couple of months to conceive after stopping the pill. BUT... Some women get pregnant even taking them religiously.
I hope you get the answers you want. Keep us posted.
