Delayed Period After Pill Break: Causes & What To Do


Question
hi there, i have a slight concern i hope you are the right person i have contacted. last month i decided to come off of the combined pill to have a break for a while my seven pill free days came and i had my period which went on for slightly longer as i hadnt started the next course due to haveing a break checkin on my dates i should of got my next period over a week ago an no signs apart from feelin bloated all th time. i took a pregnancy test to be sure which came back negative but i am worried an could do with some advice thanks.

Answer
check another preg test using a first morning urine sample, and if negative, you can start the next pack right away, but you won't be covered for birth control until the first pack is gone... so you have to use alternate methods initially like condoms.....
