Irregular periods and pregnancy.

Question - (5 March 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 6 March 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *mmaxbaby writes:

Last year I had the contraceptive injection for 6 months, then 4 months later I had the pill for a month and then stopped because I was having periods and wanted go them back to normal, so I haven't been taking any birth control since December 2008.

I haven't had a proper period since I started my injection back in late 2007, I've had iregular bleeding and that's it.

Last night I had sex and didn't use a condom, could I still be pregnant even though I haven't been having proper periods for over a year? and what's the chances of me being pregnant?

blawndie agony auntIrregular periods could mean that you aren't ovulating. It's "hard" to get pregnant when you aren't ovulating. Your egg must be released and his sperm must meet with the egg. I'd say your chances are pretty low but if you really want to ease your mind, I suggest Plan B.

I had irregular periods and I still got knocked-up. I would go 15 days w/o a period one cycle then 50 days w/o a period the next cycle. If I could get knocked up after being off the pill for 2 months I'm pretty sure your chances are just as high. Please use a condom, if you don't get your period within the shortest cycle you've had I would take a pregnancy test (that's how I found out!)

jessica04 agony auntBy now any birth control you were taking is out of your system. This means that assuming your uterus works normally, then you are at risk for getting pregnant.

Go see your doctor and make sure you are perfectly healthy down there. They can also run a pregnancy test, but you might have to wait a week or two for any test to be its most effective.

Condoms condoms condoms!
