Could I still be pregnant?

Question

My last period was november 19-25.  This is my first month off of birth control so I dont remember the exact number my cycles use to be before I got on birth control but I know it was no longer than 32 days. Tomorrow will be day number 36 with no period.  I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it said negative but ive been constipated and bloated and needing to burp constantly the past 3 days.  I read a lot about women who couldn't get a positive urine test but got a positive blood test. Anyone's input would be greatly appreciated.

Answer

This past cycle was my first cycle off BCP. AF was 2 weeks late and then finally showed her ugly face. I never got a positive OPK that cycle so I'm guessing I didn't ovulate. I'm hoping that this cycle I do and can concieve. I had a lengthy discussion with my gyno and she said it can take several months for you body to regulate and your hormone levels to even out. Best of luck to you! ?

Answer

I was reading when you come off birth control, it can take 3 months to have a period again. I was freaking out the first month I came off of it since I was late, but my period came. 3 months later and I still don't really know if it's regular (I don't monitor it) but I managed to get pregnant last month.

Answer

So I'm the same boat as you, except maybe a month ahead. The very first month I went off bcp(oct., period was 10/2) AF was two weeks late with BFN and finally came on 11/19. I'm now in a haze as to what my normal cycle is. I've heard that it can take a couple cycles for it to fully get rid of the hormones from bcp. I guess were both on AF watch. Let me know what happens with you. We could be cycle buddies!

Answer

At least you guys have a cycle. I went off BC in July and nothing. I'm also not pregnant which is frustrating. Seeing my doc next month to make sure everything is okay. My cycle was never normal before the pill so I'm used to going months withou a period......

Answer

Bcp can do crazy things to your cycles. I'd wait until AF is 2 weeks late (I know,  killer) test again and then consult with your dr.

Some women don't ovulate their first month(s) off Bcp and so cycles can get super long!

Answer

With the exception of bc and antibiotics I'm almost in the same boat as you. I'm on day 38. I'm scared to take a test and it say no so I'm waiting it out.
