Pregnant While On The Pill?Some Happyfied Girl asked...Hiya,
Just want to mention I'm supporting 101% for your Ask Miss Love site. Just plain cool!
By the way, I have this question going through my mind lately as my friends kinda mention it. So, if let's say, I'm on the pill, never missed one before, never had diarhoea or vomit, had intercourse with condom, is there any chance of positive pregnancy? I'm just wondering coz i'm feeling bloaty sometimes on the pill.
Thanks.

Thank you for supporting Ask Miss Love. I hope it will gather momentum as the pages get filled with stories and solutions.
As for your question, here are the answers:
You should still use protection (that is, the condom) if you just started on the pill. This is because the Pill takes some time before being effective. Please consult your ob-gyn for the specific number of days.
If you are using the condom effectively (meaning, you place it on the penis BEFORE INSERTING INTO THE VAGINA, not on your thumb or ear or whatever - I have heard jokes abt this, so just mentioning as precautionary measure) and the condom was not broken through the intercourse session, there is no reason to suspect that you are pregnant.
A common misconception is that you can have sex w/o a condom UNTIL THE GUY WANTS TO CUM. Now that is absolutely untrue and most certainly result in pregnancies in some "unlucky" cases. Sperm is found in semen, which releases itself in very small quantities while having intercourse. Think of this like the male version of lubrication.
My advice when it comes to the Pill is, it is meant for committed long term partners. One night stands, flings, drunken sex etc should always ALWAYS use condom because you can and will catch sexual transmitted diseases without using a condom.
I think your bloaty feeling is normal and is hormonally related. Could be water retention or gas. Do ask your GP abt it, if the bloaty feeling bugs you a lot.
Hope that helps!
