I was on birth control for 12 years. Just got off of it a month ago. My doctor said there should be no issues getting pregnant after being on bc for that long and that it could happen right away even. My period is due on the 16. Not sure if symptoms I am having are just period symptoms (because while on bc I never had period symptoms) Or if I could be pregnant. Today I am emotional, crying over Xmas music and aches and pains in my hip. Any insights would be great.
