i cant believe im asking this


Question Posted Saturday January 30 2010, 7:31 pm

i was previously on the birth control shot that lasts for three months. i fist took it in april or early may of last year i believe. The shot stops your period and is supposed to last for 3 months. However, I havent gotten my period since. Its been well over three months and I actually was not very sexually active during this time. Actually I wasnt at all. Recently though I started again and decided I would go to the doctor to see what is up with my body, I just havent had the chance to just yet. The problem is I had sex very often during the past week and of course I used a condom and everything but you never know with these things. Nothing was weird except I was really sore because I went from barely having sex to doing it quite often. Today I think I peed more than I do in three days combined. And now I noticed that the nipple of my breasts are quite sore. What could this mean and is there any possible chance I could be pregnant or even experiencing symptoms this early if i am, because It's only been a week since I started being very sexually active.and again, I made sure to always use a condom...

well to answer your question I was on the shot for 4 yrs and had sex with no protection and I always thought I would become pregnant. It just didn't happen though. Depending on how long you have been on the shot it varies. see with me i was on it so long it lowered my chances of getting pregnant, and this shot was the strongest birth control there is. I did have symptoms as well but they weren't true symptoms. It's just your body could be changing. But if you do think your pregnant I would avice you to take a pregnancy test or go to the doctor.Anything could happen you never know. but I hope I helped in some way. good luck honey!!!

well, any time you become sexually active, there is a chance of pregnancy. Even if you used a condom. 1 drop of semen has a million sperm and thats all it takes. However, if you say you were not sexually active AT ALL (meaning you didnt have sex, even 1 time) then the chances of you showing pregnancy symptoms is something that had to have taken place within the last few weeks, not months. It usually takes 10-12 days for symptoms to start. If you had sex 12 days ago, then yes you could be pregnant.

The best thing to do at this point is to go out and get 2 pregnancy tests. (never take just one) At home pregnancy tests are usually very accurate (as long as you dont buy cheap ones from the dollar store) Take both tests, and if you are pregnant, you need to go to the doctor right away. There are certain steps you need to take to ensure that not only your baby is safe, but YOU remain safe and healthy as well.

I wish you all the best and please remember, the only way to make sure you NEVER get pregnant is to not have sex. No matter how much protection you use, there is still a chance of failure.
