A member asked:

I've been very bloated lately, like everyday, but i had withdrawal bleed a few weeks ago, is it likely that i'm pregnant? i take my pills everyday

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely, but...: A urine pregnancy test, done correctly, gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman takes her birth control pills correctly, pregnancy is quite unlikely.
