Anways, so I have taken the "morning after" pill a few times before and it always screws up my cycle and I'm late like 2 weeks usually.
But my question is.. is there a possibility that I can't get pregnant?
I'm not asking this in order to not use birth control anymore.. (I'm on the pill now and we're using condoms).
But my mom was unable to have children til she had hormone therapy or something like that.. im not sure what it's called, but it gave her breast cancer TWICE. So I am not doing that if I'm unable to get pregnant.
I am just wondering if it hereditary and if maybe I can't. I mean, we've been irresponsible about sex more than a few times and plenty of scares and pregnancy tests.. and I've never gotten pregnant.
Its' just a little weird to me..
oh and another thing.. i know a girl from school and we used to be best friends.. she was sexually active since about 15yrs old til now (shes 22) and she is even dumber about it then Ive been. Shes had multiple partners and even got into the porn industry and she never has gotten pregnant. Why is this? Could she be infertile? She's never been on birth control and rarely uses condoms.. i know, stupid.

So is this all just luck or should I (or we) get this checked out??
Thanks!! =D
The "Pull Out" method was the method I was using during my first and only pregnancy. I was young, naive, stupid and unmarried when my boyfriend and I used that method. At least you are married.

Prettyjolie, here's some Food for Thought: Even the smallest drop of seminal fluid can cause pregnancy. It's not worth the risk when there are so many methods of birth control available. I'm happy you and your husband have started using protection because that's the best and safest method for birth control.
