Hi,
Thanks for the query.
While being on contraceptive pills, some amount of irregularity in menstrual cycles is common.
As you stopped the pills after one week of usage, that might have led to withdrawal bleeding.
That might have continued for one more week.
If you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation, there is possibility of pregnancy.
Now it is difficult to guess your period of ovulation, as there was intake and stoppage of contraceptive pills.
You wait till your expected date of periods according to previous month.
If you miss the periods, wait for one more week and go for blood test for pregnancy.
If you want to choose urine test, better to wait one more week.
Take care.
