Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
All the precautions including birth control pills are not 100% fool proof in protection against a pregnancy. If I were your doctor, I would go for a serum HCG determination to rule this out as urine PT is not always fool proof. In addition an ultrasound might also be helpful.
However, the frequency in urination could also be due to a UTI and so I would also advise you for a urine routine/microscopic/culture sensitivity test and treat the infection if found positive. This would relieve you of your problem.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
