Hi , thanks for writing in. I understand your concern. I be learnt that you have taken BCP for past 5 months. First thing you need to make sure is , you haven't missed pill any day. Secondly, if you are on thyroid medication or antibiotics or any other drug as these drugs are known to cause contraceptive failure. Whatever may be the situation, I suggest you to do a home urine pregnancy test with first morning urine sample.
The other thing is its hard to evaluate just one symptom and come to a diagnosis. So, as your preliminary tests are OK, I assume it could be stress related gastritis that is causing you poor appetite and sleep. For this, I suggest you to take tab .pantoprazole 40 mg once a day for 7 days half an hour before food. Also eat small frequent meals and avoid oily and spicy food. Do practice relaxation techniques like going for a walk or exercise.
If you still have those symptoms, do get your liver function tests and urine routine and culture along with scheduled consultation with the physician who will examine you clinically to see what is
troubling you.
Hope this helps. Take care.
