Stopped taking Orthotricyclen Lo BC pills and hoping to get pregnant. Am I?

Question

so i've been on OTL for three months and after my last period on the pill, i completely stopped taking it. the following week i had 5 days of bleeding i guess from the abrupt stoppage of the pill? anyways, since then, my hubby and i have been having loads of unprotected s*x trying to conceive. currently, i'm 5 days late but a HPT came out negative yesterday. can i be pregnant?

Answer 1

It's possible, but i would take another test, if still no period in a few days visit the doctor for a blood test

Answer 2

I would check again in a few days. If you are having any of the symptoms: breast tenderness, fatigue missed period, morning sickness etc. then it seems pretty likely. Those tests can be wrong. Test again in a few days.

Answer 3

I dont think you are. You need to give the hormones more time to get out of your system. I have been on the patch and am now on the implanon. That whole bleeding a week later thing is odd. but give it a few more weeks and you should take another HPT. then try like h**l if its negative. If you dont get pregnant in the next year have his sperm and your eggs checked to make sure u are fertile. Good Luck!!!!

Answer 4

If you tested to soon then the test wont test right. Since your body is trying to find its cycle without the hormones from pill, wait a few days and retest. It could take up to six month for your body to start ovulating regularly again!
