Hi I am new to this but am seeking some advice/reassurance or if anyone has experienced something similar :)
I am 27 and have been on the pill (Yasmin) since I was 18, over the past few years I have gained some extra weight and the start of the year my nurse advised me to stop taking the pill due to my weight gain. So the end of January I stopped taking it with hopes to then get the coil fitted. Then the pandemic occurred and I felt bad about how the NHS were overworked so I thought I would wait until things calmed down to book in to get a coil fitted. I always used condoms for protection after coming off the pill.
Fast forward a few months to mid April, I realised after having sex that the condom had split. I was in a huge panic as I do not wish to have any children and getting pregnant is something I am paranoid about.
I went to the pharmacy straight away and took the morning after pill. No side effects.
Then about a week later I develop this uncomfortable pain in my right upper/mid abdomen. As I have never been pregnant before I again panicked thinking the morning after pill hasn't worked as I had never felt this pain before.
I left it a few weeks, my period came at normal time (but it only lasted 2 days.
The pain got worse so I decided to call the doctors. The doctor said it sounded like a gallbladder infection but after taking antibiotics I wasn't any better. I then started to feel this achy, itchiness under my skin all over my stomach. I was also experiencing flutters and pops every other day all over my stomach.
I have taken 5 pregnancy tests over 5 weeks and all come back as negative. I have also had normal periods (but again really short) could this be to do with coming off the pill?
I mentioned my fear of pregnancy to the doctor and she said if the test says negative then I'm fine, but I have heard so many horror stories of false negatives.
After having a blood test I was told I had an under active Thyroid and have been put on hormone tablets.
I still cannot shake this fear that I am pregnant, I literally am sending myself mad and have become so anxious and paranoid. I just wished I could have reassurance but the doctor won't send me for a scan or test my bloods for pregnancy due to my home test showing negative.
I apologise for this long thread but I am honestly so paranoid and my boyfriend is sick of me thinking I'm pregnant! Thank you in advance for any help.
