Ortho-lo & pregnancy
| Mon, 05-15-2006 - 5:38am |
Hello everyone. I started on Ortho-lo about 5 months ago because of an ovarian cyst that burst in December. Before getting on the pill my periods were very irregular, every 6-8 weeks, now they are like clock-work. My next af is due 5/16, however for the past week or so I have been nauseous every day (all of this week I've haven't been able to eat without feeling ill), I have been dizzy, have cramps (like b/f af, however ever since I got on the pill I have not really had), back pain (past 3 days), headaches. My boobs are only sore to the touch, but ever since I got on the pill they've grown and hurt more often. So I'm wondering, could I be pregnant? I've heard of women getting pregnant while on Ortho-lo. We try to use condoms as well, however it doesn't always happen (or breaks). Anyone gotten pregnant while on bc? I am tempted to take a test, however I figure I'll just wait to see what happens tuesday.

If you have taken your pills exactly as directed (same time every day, no missed pills, no vomiting or diarrhea within 2 hours of taking a pill, no meds or supplements that interfere with the pil), the likelihood of pregnancy isn't very high, even less so because you also use condoms.
