What Causes Delayed Menstruation While On Birth Control?
Hi, i am on the pill and my periods would always come a week before they are meant to. This month I have missed my period (should have got it over two weeks ago), I m also very tired and have to pee alot. I am sexually active as well. should i be concerned? or is it normal to miss a period completely when on the pill?

Hi dear and thanks for your query.
While are sexually active and you have delay periods even if you are on pill and you have used them regularly ,the first thing you should do is to exclude pregnancy.
Hence take a pregnancy test at home ,
If it will be positive,it means that you are pregnant .
If it will be negative than contact with your doctor to determine the reason of delay periods,because there are many reason that can cause delay to missed periods.
All the best
