I'm in a similar situation and would like some help:
I've been on birth control for 5 years, and changed my dosage and brand to a lower one a year ago (to Microgestin FE1-20). I have probably only missed a handful of pills in the over 5 years I have been taking them however last month I missed the last 2 pills in my pack. I had unprotected sex with my husband the day after my last pill was suppose to be taken, and missed my period for that month. I wasn't terribly worried because every 3 months or so I miss a period as the lining is so thin it just doesn't shed. But this month has rolled around and I have taken every pill in the pack and now it is time for my period but it should have started by now. I'm wondering if the stress and anxiety of worrying if I'm pregnant is causing me to be late or if I may be pregnant.
