I stopped taking the pill because we are trying to have a baby. I noticed my lower abdomen is swollen and I have menstrual cramps. Should I take a test?

If you suspect you may be pregnant, it is recommended to take a pregnancy test to confirm. However, if you have recently stopped taking birth control pills (less than 4 weeks ago), the likelihood of pregnancy is very low at this time. It may be advisable to wait a few more days before taking a test.
