My girlfriend has been taking bc for a
while now to help her have a regular
period ( im going to find out what kind
specifically when I talk to her soon ) but
anyways about a week ago she switched to a
new kind.. Again I will find out
specifics when I talk to her. Anyways,
she was supposed to have her period on
monday she said and she hasn't had it
yet... We are worried to death that she
might be pregnant... We have unprotected
sex. Could switching to a new kind make
her period come later? Please help!!
Thank you!!

Switching brands can change your schedule.
I was on the pill for years and got mine
on the 3rd day of the last week of pills
every month. Now I am on the patch and
comparitively.. I get it the 4th or 5th
day. So, yes, changing meds can change
around your period.. Especially the first
few months. I wouldn't panic just yet,
but if she doesn't have her period after a
few more days it wouldn't hurt to take a
test and be sure.
