Hello
Welcome to HCM
Thanks for posting your query
I understand your concerns. Any contraception method doesn't give 100%protection against pregnancy. There is always 1-2% failure rate.

So if you miss your next subsequent periods, I would advice you to do a urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy.
The symptoms you are experiencing are very nonspecific. They do not confirmatory of pregnancy.

Thank you
