Hi lee,
how long have you been taking birth
control for ? It usually takes at least 2
weeks for the pill to be effective,
depending on what type of pill you are
taking. (should tell you on the
information leaflet inside the pack). If
you suspect that you could be pregnant,
then you need to wait until your next
period is due. Then you can take a home
test, or blood tests can be taken earlier
(7-12 days after conception). You
mentioned you have had 2 periods this
month, it sounds as if your body is trying
to get used to relying on the new pill to
regulate your period. It may take a few
months to become regular again. The fact
that your periods are so erratic right
now, it would be nearly impossible to
predict when you are ovulating, if you are
at all.
Good luck

Thx..Um i've been taking the pill since
september..Thing is,this month i've
forgotten it a lot..Which I know isn't
gunna help..So,with me not taking it
regulary,does that mean I could get
pregnant easier!?..I'm 16 and do not want
to get pregnant right now..And not sure
what to do with nething..Is there any
other way besides waiting till next month
to get my period *cuz I dunno when it
would come* that I could find out..Besides
taking a bloodtest?? Couldn't I just use
a kit thing?? Or would it not be
accurate!?..
