OMG, major panic. stopped taking pill, how and when will I know if I'm pg???

[ernest]

I was on combined pill till feb, when I swapped to cerazette (prog. only mini pill). Was on it for 5 - 6 weeks. So lots of spotting /irreg. bleeding, cycle all over shop. Then stopped taking it about 2 weeks ago. I have not had unprotected sex, but since last weekend my breasts have been really painful & friend joked about me being pg. Yikes & horror. took a test on Tuesday, bfn, but if my hormones & cycle all over shop, I have no idea when I may be due, can't say if I'm late or anything.

How long should things settle down after stopping taking pill?
when should I be able to test and be confident of correct result?

Are these symptoms (mainly unbelievably tender breasts & couple of tummy twinges) normal for coming off pill?

I'm shitting myself. Scuse thee xpression

if you haven't had unprotected sex then I wouldn't worry about it.

I imagine your cycle if going to be a bit haywire because I coming off the pill and because of the stresses you've had lately...

(hope things are going well btw)

Oh darling no idea.

Have been in RL for a week or so, was there any resolution to your situation.

Don't worry too much, i felt terrible when i came off yasmin kept thinking i was pregnant all the time (although i was hoping to be) and it was nothing infact my boobs hurt more then than when i have been pregnant. if you use the Clearblue digital test you can test really early, i tested positive 11 days before my period was due!
hope you get the result you want. Good luck

thanks guys, things better than can be expected considering, not too much fun tho, but this would NOT be funny at all.

I know stress doesn't help, so hormones, stress general madness is likely explanation. I just wish I knew for sure, or wish I could know when I'd be able to find out. aaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhh. nightmare.

Just worrying that I hadn't used anything extra back in Feb when changed from combined to minipill - doc said was ok but since read should use condoms as well for a week. I didn't. And just stopped taking minipill abruptly, so maybe could've been an accident waiting to happen. Wasn't thinkignstraight to consider possible implications of just stopping. Is it ok to just stop like that? Oh no oh no oh no. What a donkey

still panicking here. it's been 3 weeks since I stopped the pill. Any concrete ideas how long a. should start period
or b. can test and feel 100% confident with the result?

Could you test again just to be sure?

Im sure it would show up now if it was positive.

Well, edie, hope you're right, got BFN (Yey!) this mroning, so fibgers crossed

hope you're ok ernest.I stopped taking Cerazette about 3 weeks ago & had 3 weeks of stomach aches before things settled down.Not had any sign of a period yet.No doubt it will arrive while we're away over the weekend!

On the plus side,my skin is looking great & I'm not as moody.Cerazette made me look & act like a spotty teenager.

Good luck

yes, well, we're going away to Germany for the weekend, so I guess you're right, sod's law I'll start then .
