Brief Answer:
Might be due to hormonal imbalance

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear
good day
I can understand your concern.
in my opinion this is called as Galactoria.
this kind of condition is seen in people having excess hormone called prolactin.
many resones contribute to this hormone realise
1.stress
2.estrogen excess due to bc pills
3.nipple stimulation
4.pregnancy

there is nothing to panic.
I suggest you to see your doc and consider doing prolactin estimation.

Hope I am able to answer your query

Brief Answer:
It's not mandatory to take sugar pills

Detailed Answer:
Hi there
good day .
welcome to hcm.
it's not mandatory to take sugar pills in bc.
this pills usually contain multivitamins or iron folic acid.
this pills will guide you about starting of new pack.
skipping of this pills will not cause failure of the birth control pills.
usually urine pregnacy rest will show positive results only after 6-8 days after missed period but serum Hcg testing will give results much earlier than urine test.

I suggest you to consider waiting for period to come.

if period did not come as expected watch for 6 more days and go for urine pregnancy estimation.

Hope I am able to answer your query
