My first question would be: how long have
you been on the pill? Because for some
women the pill slows down the period - and
for some it comes to a complete stop.
That could be what's happening.
Have you taken your pill regularly? Have
you missed any? That could have an effect
too.
Also, the pill does have a failure rate,
it is possible that you are pregnant (and
the test was taken too early). I'd say
wait a week or two (i know it's hard when
you're wondering and worried) and take it
again. Http://

ble.Htm is a pretty good chart saying
how sensitive home pregnancy tests are.
Oh and try not to get too stresses!
Stress is notorious for delaying
periods.
