pregnant??

Hi,  I ve been on birth control for over 7 yrs now. Take it everyday.  Never had a missed period. This month I didn't get my period. Last wk had some dizziness and was supposed to get my period between Fri and yesterday. Been having slight cramping since yesterday off and on like I was getting period. Had unprotected sex. When should I take a pregnancy test??  Is it possible I'm pregnant??

Thank you. I had not missed any pills and took another pregnancy test. Still negative. So we'll see what happens next month. I've been under stress lately so this might also have something to do with it.

Hi,
Delayed periods can be caused by long term use of pills. This is called post-pill amenorrhoea. However there can be a possibility of pregnancy if you have missed a few active pills. Hence a pregnancy test can be taken. Consult your Doctor.
Hope this helps.
