Q: Am I Paranoid About Pregnancy? Birth Control Concering Q

Right now I am close to the end of my second pack of birth control pills (ortho tricyclen lo) I am concerned about pregnancy because I had had unprotected sex (he pulled out though) within the first 2 days of starting this pack... Generally this would be okay except for the fact that I had missed the very last active pill in the pervious pack by 18 hours... I had gotten my period the next day after that so I just brushed it off.

6 days in to the second pack (one that im on now) I had unprotected sex again but this time he came in me, I went to the clinic and had gotten an ec.... So far it's been a bit over 2 weeks and was wondering if I should go in and get a pregnancy test of am I a bit too paraoid?

You do sound a bit paranoid.. The ec was a great idea, and helped you stay protected.

Hey! How your feeling is normal girl...I was paranoid so much the first 6 months on was on the pill...Generally, they say depending on what start day you have, your protected after your first full back. Many after two weeks. You are fine, your not pregnant. As long as you have not missed any pills you are fine. I do understand, I stressed out every month because he comes in me all the time...But so far its been fine! (knock on wood). You can take a test to ease your mind but I can almost bet your not pregnant.

Best of luck

Dont get paranoid. I was exactly how you were I got all upset cuz I was so paranoid and come to find out everything is normal. I was just overreacting. Also being paranoid for so long can really mess up your next period too. If you are still paranoid then I suggest that you get a pregnancy test done so then you know for sure
