Ok so my girlfriend is 7 days late from
her period and she is on birth control.
We dont know when the last time we had sex
was but im really concerned. We have been
together for almost 2 years now, but we
are too young to have a child. Someone
let me know what we should do.

a couple of questions first:
when you say you dont know the last time
you had sex, does that mean not since last
month or did you at some point during the
month and you just forgot the specific
date
secondly, did she miss any pills? and if
so how many in a row?
if your worried take a test, and see from
there. there are many things that can
cause a delayed period including stress
and birth control itself so if she took
all her pills correctly tell her to relax
becuase everything is probably a-ok!
keep in mind im not a doctor just someone
trying to help!

she was late once on the pill and took it
the following day, with that days pill.
We cant remember the last time we had sex
from her last period. We would love to
hear peoples thoughts on what we should
do!!!

well if she only missed one pill and took
it the next day the chances are very slim
that see is pregnant but mistakes can
still occur so now would probably be a
good time to test. if it has been over two
weeks from the last time you had sex a
home pregnancy test would be accurate.
if the results are negative have her keep
taking her birth control and contact her
