Thank you for writing in HMC,
many women who take an i-pill complain of delayed periods which makes them more anxious about a pregnancy. it is a common side effect of the i-pill to delay or make your periods irregular. it may continue to be irregular for about three months but this vary from woman to woman. since you have already waited 1 week after your missed period, do a urine pregnancy test to know if your pregnant or not. if negative you may wait for 2 more weeks for your periods, if it still doesnt come repeat the test or get a scan done.
