Hi,

I think its great you can get advice on here, I am 24 and in a fantastic relationship.

I have two questions; Im currently on cilest 21 day pills , and 7 days free, and have been for about a year, i was due on my period on the 27th october 2010, however on the 6th october i had antibiotics for a chest infection, on the 30th I was due on my period but i only came on for 3days extremely light only when i wiped. This has never happened before.. we always have unprotected sex,

I have done 4 test 2 error ans 2 negative last test was on the the 5th nov, is this normal to miss a period??

Then to top it all i went away on the 6th Nov and forgot my pills for 3 days and had sex again for those 3 days unprotected. I have just got back home and unsure what to do??

could I be pregnant?? If i was it would be fantastic news even though we wasnt trying..

Hi,

Im really grateful for your reply and the time you have taken, I took my pill yesterday and today, so just so iv understood this correct, if i dont get a period by the time im meant to i could very likely be pregnant? so it means waiting another 2 half weeks to find out.. wow thats a very long time when you are wanting to know something.

I would like to say this has been a massive help and I couldnt thank you enough I will keep you posted and would be grateful for your advice as you have taken the time to help me.

Thank you :)

You're welcome.
Did you take two pills yesterday and today to get caught up on the pills? I believe that's what you're supposed to do according to those articles I posted for you. And yes, a missed period is indication of pregnancy. Some home pregnancy tests say you can take them up to 5 days before your period, but the results may not be as accurate than if you wait until you miss your period.
Good luck, and I hope you get the result you're hoping for.
