Ok, kind of off topic here, so I apologize but was unsure where to ask this.

I am not ttc. I take birth control pills and have for years. I am pretty regular with taking them within a 3 hr time window and barely miss a dose.

I feel like I have read that one can still ovulate on the pill. I know that the pill is technically suppose to stop that from happening. Now, I obviously haven't done all of the tracking of seeing if I'm ovulating, but I get so crampy a few days after I finish my period and there is a slight change in discharge. Could I be ovulating, or at least be having some of the symptoms of ovulation?

No. You are not ovulating.
No, you can't get pregnant on the pill unless you're not taking it right. And no you are not pregnant.
This is the 3 thread where you question your cycles. Maybe it's time to talk about your cycles with a GP.
If you are so scared to get pregnant, use double protection. Cramps right after your period isn't ovulation by the way, and certainly not on birth control.
We ladies here are ttc.
Google "conception" or "cycles with birth control" and see how they work.
