ok i have a rather complicated situation. i was on the pill (levlen) for two years. then i was a dumbass i made an appointment for my yearly pap late and didnt get into the gyno till two weeks after i finished my last pack. anyway, a few days before seeing the doctor, i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend (my period lasts wednesday-saturday, we had sex sunday and monday). i thought it would be ok since id been on the pill so long and i was at a time in my cycle considered to be "least fertile." (you know, since youre on placebos for the week youre menstruating, im thinking its ok)

anyway, i saw the doctor, got my new pills and went on my way, but i cant (couldnt) start the new pack until the sunday following my next period. the problem is, according the regularity ive had for the past two years, my period should have started today.

im kind of thinking that my period is a little irregular cause i stopped the pill briefly, but part of me is really scared.

what do you ladies think?

The best thing to do is take a pregnancy test, as no one else can tell you! You might want to speak to your doc first, as if you're taking the pill the hormones might affect an over the counter test.

I agree with the previous poster. While your period would be unlikely to be regular right after going off the pills, it's also possible to get pregnant right after going off pills. I say this from experience - one of my best friends went off the pill to try and get pregnant and never got her next period ... because she succeeded so quickly. It doesn't happen very often, but it can happen, and if you don't get your period soon, you should see your doctor for a pregnancy test before starting the new pack of pills.
