Anxiety I might be pregnant
I have been on sertaline for 5 weeks I still experience a heavy head dizzy symptom but for the most part I'm kind of ok. I only started to get bad anxiety a day before my period 7/7. Anyways my on and off boyfriend of 9 years (I am now 28) we decided to have unprotected sex for the first time last Saturday and he did not pull out. I am on birth control I never miss a dose but after Saturday we had a petty argument and now we are currently broken up we are not talking to each other. my anxiety is through the roof and although I'm on the pill I keep thinking that I'm pregnant I feel nausea, dizzy, spaced out, jittery, confused, and depressed, scared I'm gonna faint. I had finally began to get to a point where I was kind of getting better now I'm feel like going backwards. Im going to try to work out I haven't worked out in two weeks so I need to start doing that again.
What was the date of the first day of your last period?
And what was the date of the unprotected sex?
If you're on the pill, the sex wasn't actually unprotected, was it? Or am I getting the scenario wrong - sorry. I'm a midwife so I should be able to do some calculating for you.

I got my period July 7th and the day I had unprotected sex was July 16th but unprotected I mean no condom, I've never had unprotected sex before so I guess I'm paranoid even though I'm on the pill. The break up is also stressing me out
You would not know yet. You would not feel anything yet. You have to wait to get closer to your next period date and take a pregnancy test. You have about a 3% chance if you even are. You are on the pill.
Just occurred to me, the great brainbox, that you don't ovulate whilst on the pill so you can't possibly be pregnant!
So that is sorted out. Even if by some mischance you do ovulate this cycle, it'll be about now, so the sperm will be dead.
Thanks ladies for responding I guess it's because of the break up and over thinking has sparked my anxiety
