Hi everybody. I’m new to here. I would like to discuss the chances of pregnancy since I recently stopped my contraceptive pill. I am 22 years old and from the UK. I have been on the pill for 6 years.
I have recently stopped my pill to see how it affects my mental health.
The last pill I had taken was on 24/08/2023 (for UK dates) 08/24/2023 (for those in the USA).
I had the usual “period” during the break I usually take for the 7 days which started on 28/08/2023 and usually I would take my pill again 7 days since I took the last one which should of been 31/08/2023. However, because I was now stopping my pill, I didn’t take it on this date and the bleeding lasted until 01/09/2023.
It then stopped and I hadn’t taken a pill since 24/08/2023.
On 14/09/2023 my boyfriend accidentally came inside of me, after using the pull out method since I had stopped my pill. I thought nothing of it but took ovulation tests to see where my natural cycle was up to. I also took 2 pregnancy tests which came up negative however the ovulation tests came up positive.
I then took a pregnancy test on 28/09/2023 just to be sure as I had pregnancy paranoia and I had the slightest faint line showing. Not even the full line but it was so faint I was wondering, how it would show if there was no HGC?
Now since using the pull out method, we have been so used to me being on the pill that it’s easy to forget that I am now off the pill (please don’t judge😩) my partner then came in me again a few days ago on 14/10/2023. What should I do? I haven’t had a period since I stopped the pill yet but am worried, what are the chances of pregnancy and ovulation since I last took the pill on 24/08/2023?
