Messed up period/pregnant?

Hi! I'll try to cut this as short as I can...I have been off of birth control (Aviane) for about 4 months, my partner and I are not really TTC but if it happens, it happens. Ever since, I've tracked my periods and they've been consistently between 26 and 28 days since I've been off the Pill. Last month my period was due on April 21st, while we were on vacation. I didn't want to get my period while in paradise (who would?!) so I brought an unfinished pack of pills with me. I started cramping on April 20th and took 2 pills to try to stop my period for a few days. Ever since, I've had mild to average cramping, fatigue and sensitive nipples and STILL haven't gotten my period. My question is: Could two pills really mess up my cycle that bad to where my period 12+ days late? Or do you think it's more likely that I'm pregnant? I know this is a question for a doctor but I'd just like to hear what others have to say!

I agree with Lizwishes.  I once (long ago) took 3 pills in a day (dumb teenager at the time) because I forgot to take them and it caused me to spot a little but my period still came on time a few days later and I wasn't pregnant.  Take a test & whether it's positive or negative, call your doctor's nurse for instruction, then go from there.  Take care!

i'd do a test, if its negative i'd put it down to the pills you took to delay period 8 )
