Could Missing Period And Discharge After Stopping Birth Control Pills Be The Symptoms Of Pregnancy?
I've been on birth control pill for about 5 years, and recently stopped. Couple days after I stopped, I had unprotected sex, and now it's been a little over a month and I haven't had my period, and I have had lots of discharge. Is this a sign of pregnancy or is it just because i've just been off the pills so my hormones are trying to get used to ovulation again??

Dear Madam,
It cannot be said with surity that it is pregnancy only but yes there is a likelihood that it can occur , So get your urine pregnancy test done.
