advise on when to test please? been on pill for 4 months with no break.....

[MrsMc82]

Hi, need some advise for one of my girlfriends - she's not on mumsnet....
She's been on pill for a while not had a break for 4 months till thursday last week, she has had a bleed but she's got some serious pregnancy symptoms for last month, tireness, sickness,dizzyness,headaches (just like I was when pg with ds) is unlikely as she's been on pill and v careful but accidents happen and she's been in a new relationship sobeenatitlikerabbits for last 6 months so just wants to rule it out, she's wanting to wait a couple of days to make sures it properly accurate but I think she'll get a true result now won't she??....
Please could you HPT experts let me know whats best

I'm not an expert but I think symptoms don't happen without pregnancy, so either they are symptoms or something else or of pregnancy. I would do the test asap and if not she can get to the GP quickly to start figuring out what the problem is. Why did she not have a break for 4 months? Maybe that's what's doing in her in. You can get a pack of 2 tests and then she will have another one which she can do in another couple of weeks if it's negative now. I don't see how waiting a couple of days can make any difference if she has been feeling these symptoms for a month.

symptoms OF something else or symptoms of pregancy

She's bought the test and now shittingherself worries about taking it in case its a +ve - my logic is rule out pregnancy and get to the GPs..... I think I've freaked her about a bit suggesting her symptoms are exactly how I was when I was pg but think she just need to work out what's going on so she can stop worrying, also likely that if she's beenrunning her pills packs together then that's making her feel bleugh..... Just wanted to check with the HPT exprts on here about whens best to test..... I remeber when I was ttc I was obsessed with poas from the second dh and I shagged and didn't realise that was a total waste of money till someone explained to me the logic of how hpts work!!!!
