What Causes Delay In Periods And Breast Soreness Inspite Of Taking Contraceptive Pills?
I am on the pill and had unprotected sex with my partner of years and the very next day I got my period. I was not due to get it according to the pill. It lasted for 11 days. Two weeks later, I was supposed to get my period, according to the pill and did not get it. It has been around 30 something days that I hadn t gotten my period. According to my pill, I am supposed to get my period on Sunday. Last Thursday, I experienced sore and tingly breasts which sometimes I experience with my period. I am wondering if there is a possibility that I could be pregnant.

Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
Delayed periods with sore breast may occur because of hormonal imbalance as you are on contraceptive pills, it may occur as a sideeffects of progesterone. If you want to confirm get urine pregnancy test preferably early morning sample after a week of missed periods or serum bhcg levels which are more specific in diagnosing early pregnancy.
Thank you
