Hi, I'm new here. My situation is that I have been taking Seasonal for over a year and was recently switched to the generic, Quasense. I am 1 1/2 months into my three month pack and I'm worried that I might be pregnant. I had protected sex on April 21st. I'm not really having any symptoms other than I get nauseous but only when I think about the possibility of being pregnant and I have gained some weight but only because I was going to kickboxing and I've stopped because my membership was up. My question is when can I take a test since I haven't missed a period because I'm on extended birth control? I might just be letting my nerves get the best of me... Thank in advance for any help.

Do you know about when your periods would be if you had one. How long has it been since youve had a period. You can take some tests before you miss a period and if you knew about when you should have had one you could judge arround when a test would be most accurate. Or id wait about a month after when you think conceiving might have occured and test then no gurantees that it will be accurate. but you can buy them and test and know for sure.

If it's been at least 4 weeks since you had this protected sex, I'd take a test. Even though you haven't technically missed a period because you're on the pill, the hormone will still be in your system if you are indeed pregnant. If you still feel sick after taking the test, I'd maybe take another a week after the first. Do your breasts feel tender? I know that was the first symptom with both of my pregnancies.
