How possible is it?

Hi,

I've been on bcp called Zovia for the past 9 months, and I've never missed AF. I've expirienced about 5 pounds of gain weight over the past two months. I have been eating the same as always, but it seems to be staying on me. I was gonna take a hp test couple of weeks ago but my AF came right on time and I had cramps like I usually have, so I didn't get the test. Now how possible is it to be pregnant while on the pill and getting AF's on time?

Worried,

J.

Hi after_leptirica, welcome back!

It's not impossible but very unlikely that you are pg if you had your normal period. As we age our metabolisms slow and sometimes weight gain happens, right? If you are really freaking you can test but I think you should be fine. Thanks for stopping by.

Good luck,

      Jill

Thanks Jill,



I thought I was done worrying after first few months on the pill, but I guess it creeped in on me again. I have no other symptoms except the gain, so I will wait for my next scheduled AF. :)

Thanks,

J.
