Pregnant?
I'm on junel 21 and my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex after an irregular week. I took to pill at varyig times. e.g. 8 pm to 2 am and I missed a pill that week. However, I took the missed pill as soon as I realized I had missed as directed by the pill packet. I tried to induce a period by going off the pills. I am on day three off the pill and still no period. I took a test yesterday about two and a half weeks after the sex and it was negitive. How likely is it that I'm pregnant and what should be my course of action. Please Help.

Hello,
The possibility of pregnancy is there since you have missed so many pills. However to confirm the status of pregnancy, I suggest you to test for pregnancy by a highly sensitive pregnancy test 10 days post ovulation with a sensitive ( 20 - 25 mIU ) pregnancy test. Also then I would suggest you to get your serum HCG levels estimated since this is more specific than urine for pregnancy tests.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

I don't know how likely it is that you're pregnant, but missing that many pills/stopping the pills could definitely increase your chances. I'm not sure from your post of how recently this happened, but it might be too early to test yet.
