Can stopping the birth control pill show pregnancy like symptoms ?
I have been on the pill for two years and last December,and the day I got my period I stopped the pill.I am 26 and I am trying to fall pregnant .I have no problems with getting my periods and i my cycle is normal,which is a 28 day cycle and as always been that way since i stopped the pill and so is my ovulating.But I seem to feel like I am pregnant since I stopped the pill.Back aches ,wanting to throw up and headches heart burn and dizzyness.But since last week its been happening only in the morning and night.I took a pregnancy test and it shows negitive.So could it be cause I stopped the pill or I am pregnant and it just aint showing yet? Thanks Kind Regrads

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum
After taking birthcontrol pills for a duration of 2 yrs or so, the body takes about 6 months or more to adjust itself with the situation again, and to secrete natural hormones.
What date did you do the pregnancy test? Did you miss your period this time? The test is to be done after you miss a period, before that it will show itself as negative.
Sometimes stopping medication also causes certain symoptoms. Just like you must have experienced when your started the pill , 2 yrs back.
If the symptoms are unbearable , you can visit your gynaecologist, for a checkup and some routing investigations to rule out any thing else.
Takecare.
