HELP :(

[Huskies0430]

Im six days late for my period. Im on the birth control LoEstrin and my boyfriend and I use condoms so I didnt think I was pregnant. I took a test two days ago to be sure and it came out negative. Is there another reason that Im so late? Is it okay to be this late even on birth control? Could I actually be pregnant and the test was just a false negative?

Everyone is different, but I would be lying if I said it's not possible. I was on birth control and my hubby and I used a condom and now we're prego with # 2 :) and if you took the test to early you could get a false neg. in fact a lot of women have that happen. I've had that happen. If you still don't get it in a couple days I would test again or get a blood test done. Good luck

I am on Loestrin also.  Assuming it is the same one, which is the 24 day pill (so only 4 days of the "period" part of the pill).  I missed my period also.  According to the doctor that is normal with this type of pill.  I don't like it, it worries me too much.  I was cramping a lot so he had me stop the pill 2 days early.  I ended up finally getting my period and it only lasted for 2 days.  So like I said, this is aparently normal when on Loestrin.  Im going to go on the generic of Loestrin, Junel Fe, which worked for me in the past and I think its 21 days of the pill and than 7 days of the "period" part.  As much as I dread my period, it's a reassuring thing.
