Okay so here is the deal. I have been on b/c for almost 5 years. I stopped taking b/c as sson as I was done with my last pack. I started my af jan 24 like I was suppose to. It lastd 3 days. I was due to start on the 20th of this month. Before I was on b/c they were regular..28days. I still havent started yet and there has been no spotting or anything. I had unprotected sex with my fiance during the time I would have been ovulating before and after. For the past week I have been getting cramps in my lower abdomen and lower pelvic region. My nipples have started getting really sensitive. I have been getting stomach aches but not throwing up. I have been getting kind of tired more then usual. And I have been very emotional. I have taken a few hpt. Starting about a week ago and they have all been neg.
Could I be preg and my hormone levels just arent high enough to read on a hpt??? I really need to know what you think.

They sound like symptoms of pregnancy, and it technicly is possible that the hormone levels just arent high enough, maybe try a test that should detect it b4 ur missed period.. Also.. After going off b/c ur periods will be a little off for the next lil while, while ur body is adjusting to being off them

When I was on b/c or a year or two or so I stopped taking it and then after that my period was irregluar. Coming off the pill your body is adjusting to it and yes you can have very irregular periods. The symptoms you are having do sound like pregnancy symptons but they can also be from your period getting ready to start. And like neeko said not all hpt's work for everygirl so I would go take a blood test because those are very accuarte. A lot better thank hpt's. Goodluck

I have taken just about every brand there is so far. And they have all been negative. The past few days my nipples have been really sensitive and I just got another yeast infection. This is the 2 one in a month and a hals. Ive been getting more and more tired and cramps once in while but no other symptoms. Do you know girld who were preg and took test and they said neg while the blood said yes?? I would have ovulated the first weekend of feb so I woould be a few weeks along right now. And still havent started yet. I do get a little nauseated at times too. Can you ovulated and not have your period but not be preg either? I used ovulation test sticks at the beggining of the month to figure out when I would ovulate. And the line never got darker then the other but it got really really close for a few days and then nothing. Was I ovuating?

Okay well like I said before I was suppose to start on the 20th of feb and still havent. My breasts are a little tender and now all day today my stomach had been upset and I dont know why. I still havent had my af or any of my usual signs that I will be starting any time soon. Im not really having the cramps anymore. Its just my stomach and breasts. What do you guys think??? I think I am going to get one more hpt and see and if its neg then get the blood test.
