okay so i have just got back from 4 months travelling i had the time of my life but now here i am.

I had sex on the 15th june, i was on the pill continually for the 4 months i was away ( i didnt have a break ), i returned home at the end of August and came off the pill to give my body a break and i bled for 5 days so i never suspected pregnancy.

however this month i seem to have a little hard pouch, im usually a size 6-8 with a pretty flat stomach so this was noticeable to me. Im constantly weeing, my skin is awful and i have really bad hot flashes and dizzy spells. Even though i had a bleed when i came of my pill could i still be pregnant ? i know all the odds are saying no but i just feel it.

I took 2 pregnancy tests both negative but i just cant stop thinking im pregnant, im only 23 so im not exactly desperate to have a baby i just need to know, i booked an appointment at the doctors but couldnt get one until the 8th October!

Can someone tell me is this possible or am i just going crazy !!

Some weird things can happen to your body when you come off the pill... it's highly likely to just be that.

Just to rule out the hook effect, wee into a cup and then add twice that amount of water to a cup. Then dip in a test. Tests aren't designed to detect the high levels of pregnancy hormone and so some women get negatives later in pregnancy... so this will rule out that effect.

Sorry i ment to say i came off the pill for a weeks break then i went back on it, so i have been back on it for around 3 weeks.

I will for sure do that test though! thank you!
