Am I pregnant ??
Hey I have a question maybe you can help ?? Ok last month was my VERY 1st time taking birth control so from my understanding my doctor said take them soon as ur cycle comes on && stop taking them when ur cycle goes off so it can make my cycle shorter, so I did just that && I had sex on the 25th & 27th which was my ovulation days && I also was taking gertiol which helps getting pregnant faster && as of tomorrow it will be 2weeks since this happen I begin having pregnancy feeling like my breast really hurt , bad cramps at the bottom of my stomach , some smells get to me can I be pregnant !!

So this is your first month taking birth control? Or your first month off BC? Your post was a bit unclear.
Assuming it's your first month on BC you're very unlikely to be pregnant assuming you were taking it correctly.
If this is your first month off BC you're more likely to be pregnant than if you were taking BC but still the odds aren't in your favor. You only have ~20-25% chance each cycle of becoming pregnant if you have well-timed, unprotected sex and neither you or your partner have any fertility issues that would decrease your odds.
If you suspect that you may be pregnant the best thing you can do is to wait till you're close enough to your expected period to get accurate test results and then take a pregnancy test. The day of your missed period pregnancy tests are 99% accurate. So either way you'll know for sure what is going on.
Wishing you the best.
