I was on the pill for roughly three years.
This month I finished a pill pack,
including the period week of pills on a
saturday. From sunday to the following
sunday I wasn't on any form of bcp, due a
move away from my regular health care
provider. I had sex that sunday, and the
condom broke. After trying unsuccessfully
on monday and tuesday to obtain the
morning-after pill, I got a pack of
regular bcp on wednesday. That day I took
four of the first pills at 8am, then four
more at 8pm. Then four days later
(sunday) I started a new pack of bcp and
have been taking them since. I didn't
plan for this to happen and i'm wondering
if I should take a test now or wait until
my period is supposed to come. It's been
three weeks now since I had sex. Please
anyone with thoughts, let me know.

Wait until your period is supposed to
come. A test wouldn't show anything until
your period would come.
More than likely you are not pregnant, nor
were you pregnant. But that can be a
scary situation.
Your body is not going to behave normally
because it has been given so many
hormones. You may not have your period,
even on your placebo week. You can test
for pregnancy, the pills will not affect a
test.
Good luck.

any way?

no ma'am...Nothing affects a pregnancy
test. It solely relies on hcg and
nothing could alter and disturb it...Its a
wonderful hormone!! Lol

test.
