Hey, im 18 recently i started birth control for the first time in six months. I was warned that birth control wasn't effective for at least two weeks and that i should use other protection- i didn't listen.

Anyway, After finishing my birth control i experienced real light bleeding which lasted for almost three days. Oddly, before the bleeding i already thought i was pregnant so i credited the bleeding as an implantation bleed. After about three days the bleeding turned heavier- but only once i had put in a tampon.

Nevertheless, i lost the thought of being pregnant up until recently. Im mid-way through my pack and i noticed i have real sore boobs, it could be due to the bc but immediately i thought i could still be pregnant.

Apart from the sore breast, i've noticed veins appearing across my chest, i've had headaches, back aches, muscle aches, slight cramping, trouble sleeping, frequent urination (i wake up twice a night usually three ours apart), gas, indigestion, major bloating, and also i began flu like symptoms too (which i've heard other women experiencing): stuffy/runny nose, sore throat, clogged ears.

Also, i read that during pregnancy your labia can change color due to increased blood flow, so i took a peek at my vagina and noticed it was no longer the pink color it usually was, instead it was a deep purple.

Does this sound like pregnancy? If i did my math correctly i'd be about five weeks. I'm going to take a test soon but i just wanted to get feedback.
