“hormonal” free days - should I test?

[Jemmalove123]

i finished my sprintec 7 day placebo pills on sat 18th May and due to refill issues was not able to start my new pack with active pills until 29th May. I started the pack like normal and have continued to take so. However between the 19th until now (June 10th) I have had unprotected sex. I’ve read a lot of contradictory information online regarding how long I was protected for after my last placebo pill. Should I test for pregnancy?

When birth control isn't taken as prescribed and there is a gap between packs of pills- there is a greater chance that pregnancy will occur.   There should be an information packet inside your prescription that can help detail out the risk increase.  You can wait until your next expected period and test, but I'd use a back up method until you have been taking the pills regularly again.
