Could I be pregnant? - Page 2

Have you thought about trying Nuva Ring?

Soapgirl · 10-20-2009, 06:34 AM

My doctor and I have discussed several options, including Nuva Ring and diaphragms. My doctor told me that some women are extreamely sensitive to foreign objects. The film strips even caused some dryness and irritation, I can't even use tampons regularly. Due to a condition I have I am very prone to getting UTI's and yeast infections and my doctor says that Nuva ring can cause both. I have also discussed Mirena w/ my doctor, but I'm very uneasy about doing something that drastic.

Oh boy, I feel for you girl

Well at least you're financially stable incase you do become pregnant. If I were you I'd take a multi vitamin everyday that has folic acid in it (not pre natal) just in case, then switch over to pre natals once you either want to start trying for a baby, or you find out you're preggo.

You might want to consider charting. I'm not on any sort of pill, ring, etc. because it amplifies my digestive issues. So, I started charting a few months ago after I had a big pregnancy scare.

You can Google more info on it, but basically, charting shows you when you're ovulating...so you can maybe opt out of sex prior to and during ovulation. Along with charting my basal body temp, cervix position & feeling, and discharge, I also track headaches, pms symptoms, and any other symptoms related to fertility or menstruation.

My husband isn't 100% sold on charting; which is why we still use condoms. However, I think it's never bad to know more about your body

Update- I have now been bloated moody, and tired for nearly a month now. My breasts have been swollen and tender for 10 straight days. Now for the past 4 days my stomach has been cramping ( exactly like it does when I start my period) and for the past 3 days I've been getting dizzy/light-headed spells. Like I said with the way my cycle works I should not start my period till Nov. 3. I do have a doctors appointment w/my gen.practitioner next Thursday and a appointment with my gyn. on the 2nd. I am however starting to get a little concerned that something my be wrong with me. This seems like a little more than a wonky period. If anybody has any ideals, or opinions about my symptoms please let me know, thanks.

I've bn off my BCP's since May 09'. I had a abnormal period up until July. Aug was fine then Sept was good my first day of my last period was Sept.21,09 Oct I was a week late then started spotting on the 28 it started of light pink, then dark brown, then dark brownish red then back to brown but light light brown almost like it over. I had no cramps but I had dizziness, nausea and tender nipples which lasted mayb 4 days r so. I also had lower back pain on my right side it was mild for 3 days then it got unbarable. I went to the emergency room yesturday when I got up becuz I couldn't walk on my right leg from the pain. I was told I had sacroilitis and sciatic nerve. The Dr. Proscribed me percocet for pain and prednisone which is a steroid. They did do a urine test bcuz the thought I had a urinary track infection which came back negatve but still no bleeding, cramps r nausea, but I have taken a test and it came back negative, but I have a 13 and a 10yr old with my 10 yr old I was 2months n the health unit told me I wad not pregnant so I went to a free pregnancy test place and it came back positive when I went back to the Dr and told them they tested me again and found out I was 2months along. I think I am again but my body is weird so I think time is best. I'll wait about another month n c if I'll get a regular period on the 20th of this month. I would love so input in my confusion.
