LOL, unless you are a lesbian without a uterus, why couldn't you be pregnant?
Well, presumably this person wouldn't accidentally be pregnant so there is no reason to ask when her last period was.
Gold star!
Last time I got pregnant it cost me $15,000 and a team of doctors. It's really not a possibility for me to be pregnant and not know it.

That must get tedious.

Does the medical assistant have access to your files?

They asked the question about my periods. I could not remember. They had me pee in a cup and guess what-- I was pregant. Totally surprised at 40.

Not to derail, but I have a quick question for you. I have been doing this for 6 months. Do you ever take a break? I haven't planned on taking one, but was curious what others do (and I know no one in real life who does continuous bc).
Not quoted pp, but I also stack bc. I don't take breaks. I'll stack until I can get back on the implanon. But my period is trying to kill me and my Dr and I have decided it's better to stack the bc instead if going to urgent care when I have my period.
