Hello,
I emailed you on Nov. 7th but have not heard back from you. Did you receive the following email?
Hi Amanda,
I'm not a medical doctor so I suggest you check with your physician. But in my opinion, it's possible that you could be pregnant. Even if you take your pills exactly right there is still not a 100% chance that you can prevent pregnancy. The only sure birth control method is abstinence. Or you could just be stressing out--that would cause your period to be delayed. If you want to find a free pregnancy testing center, go to http://www.optionline.org
