What Causes Delayed Menstruation And Negative Pregnancy Test?

My period is 6 days late and I've done two pregnancy tests both negative. What could be causing me to miss a period I'm due to take my pill starting tonight again after 7 free days and am worried if I'm pregnant and it's too early to detect, taking the pill may damage the baby if I was pregnant.

Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.
Normally withdrawal bleeding starts after stopping the contraceptive pill after 4-7 days. In you there is no bleeding after a 7 day break, this is slightly abnormal. This could be because of getting pregnant. But chances of pregnancy is very less if you took these pills regularly.
You should now wait for bleeding to start. Start taking these pills from 1st day of bleeding.

If bleeding doesn't occur even delayed by a week, do a pregnancy test & consult your gynecologist

Hope this helps
