please help 5th pill on placebo week still no period

I have been taking Microgestin 1/20 for 1 month now. I am almost finished with my second pack, I'm on the placebo week, its my fifth day no period still. I'be been taking my bcp on time everyday. Should I be worried or should I stay calm until I start taking my next pack?

It could be the effects from the birth control, because everything you named is in little leaflet that they give you.

Same here, I've been taking microgestin fe 1/20 for about 5 months now and the namebrand version of it for around 6 months before that. I feel very pregnant, did not get my period during the placebo pills, and now 8 days after the last of my sugar pills i quit my birth control since i feel like this and it could be pregnancy if not i feel gross anyways. My boyfriend and i continue to have unprotected sex however and i still feel bloated: My nipples hurt, i even have morning sickness yesterday i threw up and i haven't had any appetite, i have no period still and my tummy is oddly bigger than usual... i have calculated i'm about 5 or 6 weeks along now if i was pregnant but i have been taking urine tests like crazy and no positives yet. I still feel preggers tho so maybe it is this brand? keep me updated! PEace!
