information about pregnancy

For millions of women, the decision to try to get pregnant happens quickly. You spend most of your life trying not to get pregnant, then all of a sudden something changes, and you need to shift gears quickly. You want to get started right away, not only because the sooner you start, the sooner it happens, but also so that neither you or your partner lose their nerve and change your minds. So it's possible that your first few months aren't optimal for conception, it's even possible that you were recently actively trying to prevent it by using birth control.

The concern most couples have while trying to get pregnant on birth control is possible side effects on the pregnancy. The first thing to keep in mind is that every woman is different, and will react differently to different medication. For some women, it can can take months or years to figure out what the right dose of birth control to take, so there's no way to give information that's correct for everyone. This is why it's best to understand your own body, and how the birth control you are taking effects your body. For some women, it's very visible, like it causes acne, bloating or other physical effects. For others it's more subtle, making you irritable or grouchy. Knowing your own body will help.

But how do you get pregnant while on birth control? Most doctors recommend using the birth control pill in conjunction with other methods of contraception. If you have multiple partners, an active form of control, like condoms, is generally a good idea. Not only will condoms prevent pregnancy, but they will also prevent disease. If you are only interested in pregnancy, doctors will often recommend an IUD, such as a Ring or Diaphragm, that will help keep most of the semen out of the conception area, while the birth control pill takes care of the rest.

What's implied in this statement is that you can get pregnant while just on a birth control pill, otherwise, there'd be little need to suggest a secondary form of control. If you find yourself pregnant, even though you were taking something to prevent it, you should seek your doctor. Make sure you know what you were taking, and how it was affecting you. Armed with both, you should be able to figure out if there is anything to worry about.
