I remember when I first took it (years ago) I was told to use backup birth control for the first two months because it can sometimes take time to be effective. Not sure if this was specific to the particular pill I was using. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-on-bcp-do-you-get-fertility-signs#post-2865740 Wed, 09 Jan 2019 09:02:58 +0000 Umbreon 2865740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was on BCP I definitely did not have the same ovulation symptoms i experience when off the pill. If it were me, I would probably be careful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-on-bcp-do-you-get-fertility-signs#post-2865632 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 16:13:09 +0000 BadgerMom 2865632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm. I guess I never really paid much attention to fertility signs when on BCP. I always trusted that if I knew I was taking it as directed then it was working. Never failed me, but that doesn't mean much lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-on-bcp-do-you-get-fertility-signs#post-2865630 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 16:11:01 +0000 DesertDreams88 2865630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on month / cycle 2 of BCP after getting my period back at 9 months postpartum. I'm on day 14 of my cycle and I'm definitely noticing ovulation style twinges / cramping and CM, maybe EWCM. Do you ever notice fertility signs on BCP? Do you take it to mean that maybe the BC is not being very effective this cycle and failed to prevent ovulation, etc? :bummed: </p>
