Hi, I am 26 years old and am irregular with my periods. However I usually get them around the end of the month or beginning of the next. I would say within the first two weeks of the month at the latest.
Anyway, I had my last period 2/9 and ended 2/14. I had sex with my bf several times between the 14th and 20th. After that we still had sex however he would not cum inside me. However once or twice he may have accidently allowed a small amount to get in but I would urinate right after. Is it possible to push all the sperm out by urinating?
It's now 3/18 and no period. My breasts are a little sensitive, however I do not feel fatigue or cramps which I usually get before my period.
I have been stressing and so I took 3 pregnancy tests and they came back positive. Am I definately pregnant? Is it possible that it can show positive bc I am stressing and not really pregnant? How can I tell for sure?

Hi, Lyn, and welcome to EmpowHer. Thanks so much for your question.
Have you started your period yet? I ask because I guess we didn't see your question for a few days and so it's gone unanswered in that time.
The answer to your question is yes, it is possible to get pregnant from pre-ejaculate. There is sperm in that fluid and it definitely can cause a pregnancy. It is less likely than it would be if he ejaculated fully inside you, but it definitely can happen.
I am hoping for you, however, that in the meantime you've either tested and gotten an answer or that you've gotten your period.
Can I help you with any more information?

Anon, since you mention that you have a history of very irregular periods, that would be my first thought. Especially since you took a pregnancy test and it was negative. Are you stressed? Have you changed any medication, or your level of activity, or your diet? All those things can also affect our periods. But I'm thinking that you're just very late, possibly due to stress. Wait another week and test again, and if that test comes out negative, you might call your doctor's office and see if they want to test you there. But I'm betting that your period comes before then. Fingers crossed for you.

Hi, Anon, and thank you for your question!
There are two possible things going on here. One, it's very common for women to be very irregular for a while after they come off birth control pills. Even though you had a period in June, it's possible that it's delayed because your hormones are still a little off. But yes, it's possible that you could be pregnant with unprotected sex on the 12th. If I were you, I'd probably be safe and test for pregnancy. By a week late, they are pretty accurate.

Hi, Anon. Welcome to EmpowHer. I'm really glad you found us, and let's see what we can figure out.
First of all, I'm so sorry you've gone through all this. Those maids! OMG! It's never fun to be in another country and need one of our prescriptions. I'm sure it caused you a huge amount of stress and frustration (especially during the time you were trying to enjoy yourself).
Second, Alesse and Lessina ARE the same medicine, so no doubts there. They are simply two different brand names for the same drug formulation:
http://www.drugs.com/alesse.html
http://www.drugs.com/mtm/lessina.html
So let's look at the dates. I'm a little confused about some of the time frame. Can you correct this where I'm wrong?
End of April: Started Alesse
Fourth week in May (so, like, May 25?) period started
Mid June: missed two pills, switched to Lessina
Around June 15: period came (you kept taking the "sugar" pills, right?
Around June 23: 8-day period ended
Got home when?
Re-started Alesse when?
And then had sex what dates?
And July 12 would have been 28 days since your last cycle began, so you're a few days late?
My question is this. Clearly you didn't get pregnant during the time when you had missed two pills, because you had a period after that. That was the 8-day period. Were you home when that period ended? And then you started the Alesse right away?
One thing that might have affected things is this: When you miss two pills, you are actually supposed to take two pills for two days in a row (in other words, four pills in two days). And then use backup birth control for 7 days after that. That's the only time when you're really vulnerable to a pregnancy.
Honestly, I think that your cycle just got screwed up from two things: the missed pills, and then the travel and stress. Because I don't see any unprotected sex between the end of the period and the start of the new Alesse, right?
If I were you I would call my doctor's office and get her/him in on this latest chapter. Not because you might be pregnant, but because you need to know the best time to start your new packet of pills. Do they just want you to wait until a period comes, or do they want you to go ahead and start, or do they want to see you to do an office pregnancy test just to be sure? Either way, it would be good for them to know that you're in a bit of a hormonally induced puzzle and you need them to help you know what to do.
Please come back and update us, and if there's more we can do for you, please don't hesitate to write back.

Diane,
Thank you for the welcome! I am really glad I found this website.
Not only was getting my pills thrown away stressful, but I lost my driver's license and it was never found. Fortunately I was able to get a new one once home.
And yes, I'm really sorry about the sloppy dates and just realized what a mess it is! My mind's in a frenzy lately. This morning an epiphany came to me: I kept the daily programs I received while on vacation, and I remember the day I started was the day we were at sea all day. So, I looked at the program that said, "Day at Sea," and it was June 11.
So, in May, I started the 26th (I actually remember this, wow!).
On Monday, June 8th, I did not take my pill because that's when I noticed the pack was gone. Tuesday, I received my new pack and took one pill in the afternoon and another pill in the evening. Wednesday was a normal day, and then Thursday, June 11th I started my period (it COULD have been Wednesday, I really wish I could remember, but I feel more positive about Thursday).
Soo.. I'll try to make this a little easier to understand.
End of April: Started Alesse
May 26: Started period
June 8th: Missed Monday pill
June 9th: Switched to Lessina (Starting off where I was on my Alesse pack before it was trashed)
June 11th: Period started
I continued to take Alesse, one a day, only taking two on Tuesday the 9th, when I received my pack of Lessina.
I finally came home on June 19th, and my period seemed to finally disappear on June 20th. The first day of being on that period, it was spotting, and I noticed that I had no cramps. The second day did not seem heavier, but I did have mild cramps. The third day was even less, so I thought, "Wow, only a 3-day period? What a break from my usual 6/7-day ones!" But then the fourth day and from then on it was heavy and continued to increase. That's what I remember about that long period.
I re-started Alesse on June 21st. (June 20th was the day I finished my Lessina pack)
Basically, I've had sex a lot from the time I got home to today, but I began having sex again on Monday the 22nd. From June 3rd to the 21st, I went without.
Yes, I had been home a day when my period finally ended. I also was able to pick up another prescription of Alesse and start on the first day of the pack on Sunday the 21st.
Oh! I didn't know about the two pills for two days deal. Thank you for telling me, it certainly reassures me a bit more.
Again, correct :) No unprotected sex from the end of my period to the beginning of Alesse.
I am grateful for Alesse though, it's cleared up my face and I no longer have those agonizing periods with vomitting. Do you recommend that I stop taking my pills for now? This is my 5th late day, and I'm still worried about a possible pregnancy.
This Thursday I'm taking another test, but regardless I do need to make an appointment with my doctor.
Thank you so much! I tried searching the Internet for possible answers, but nobody had my same problem and most of the replies weren't from people who really knew their stuff.

Hi Jennifer,
I just read your question (sounds like you and Diane have been working on this), and I am coming into this late...but your question "should I stop taking my pills for now", as your period is late by 5 days), was confusing to me. You said you did not have unprotected sex after your last period, and am not sure why you think you would possibly be pregnant?
If you have menstruated, then that means there is not a viable pregnancy.
Sounds like you are making an appointment with your doctor; please keep us updated!
