Is it the Plan B or am I pregnant?
A month ago, [April 30th to be exact] I had unprotected sex and the guy came inside of me. I'm on birth control and have been since February. I took the Plan B pill the morning after [May 1st]. For the next few days I experienced really bad stomach pains for hours, but the box said that should happen. I had my period as I should have when I reached the fourth row of my birth control packet which was the week or a few days after I took the pill. But then I started getting those stomach pains only when I ate which I think is acid reflux because the pains are in my upper abdomen. I just got an xray and sonogram for that on Friday and since I started taking this medicine, the stomach pains have gone away. I started going to the gym a little over a week ago and I go every day. I do a lot of ab work. I should definitely see results by now, but the past few days I've noticed my lower stomach is bloated. Also, that my boobs are really sore, and today and yesterday I've been spotting a brown discharge. I just started the third row of my birth control packet yesterday. I don't know if I'm pregnant or if it's just the Plan B on top of taking my daily birth control that's messing with me... Is it too soon to take a pregnancy test if it was only a month ago? Or should I wait to until I'm done with the last row of my birth control to see how my period goes? Maybe the Plan B is screwing with my cycle and my period is trying to come early but the birth control won't let it? I really don't know but I just want to know what you guys think! I haven't been pregnant before and I've only taken Plan B that one time. Of course I started looking up first month pregnancy symptoms and a lot said bloated stomach, sore breasts, brown discharge, etc so I'm panicking. -
The kicker is, first month pregnancy symptoms are almost the exact same as period symptoms, or stomach virus symptoms, etc, etc... it can be maddening! Most likely, your body is reacting to the BC, Plan B, new workout routine, and stress combined.
You could take a home pregnancy test now to ease your mind and it would pick up the pregnancy hormone, especially if you take it with your first pee in the A.M.. However, if you were using your birth control correctly before you had sex, the chances you are pregnant are less than 1%.
Add to that you took a Plan B, the chances are even LESS than that.
Basically.. it's really REALLY unlikely that you're pregnant if you were taking your BC as directed. -
Hi,
I also took the morning after pill last week cause the condom slid off and I haven´t been feeling too well since then. I had no symptoms whatsoever when I took it, but a couple of day later my breasts started to hurt quite badly and now ( over a week after) I keep on spotting and my breasts are just killing me... I still haven´t done a pregnancy test.
Has anyone had the same symptoms?
