pregnancy symptoms, negative test results
by GRose, Jul 23, 2008 09:51AM
I am on the ortho cyclin pill and last month I missed a pill here and there. I had one day of moderate bleeding in the middle of my pack. I did not get my period when I should have and now it is three weeks late. I have been feeling like how I did when I was pregnant. I have been very nauseous on and off through the day, dizzy spells. strong sense of smell, the foods I used to love now make me sick, increased vaginal discharge, sore breasts, very tired and so on. I have taken a few pregnancy tests and they have all come up negative. Is it possible that these symptoms are from the pill or does it sound more like pregnancy?

I'd put a call into your doctor and get a quantitative blood test. If it's 5 or below it's considered negative for pregnancy. Over 5 positive, but if it's too low to affect an HPT you will probably want to monitor it every 2 days to make sure the levels are increasing.
Like I said, it could just be from missing those pills AND now being stressed about it.
Good luck for whatever you're hoping for.
