I took the morning after pill (after a possible problem with a condom) and then started 2 days later (a sunday) on bc because the nurse told me to. The thing is that my last period was 3 weeks before i started bc and would be due during the time im on bc and now i havent gotten it. is this because i started bc and have to wait to finish my first pack because the bc has prolonged when i get it(havent finished first pack yet) or is it because im pregnant?

I suggest you go back and ask the nurse, to put your mind to rest.
Hope all is okay.

i am almost 100% about this....but it is because you have started taking the BC. You are taking the "active pills" which have the hormones in them to cause your period not to come. When you start the "non active pills" which don't have hormones in them, that is when you will start your period. I have been taking BC for 5 years and something similar to this has happened to me before. I forgot to take a few pills, so i had to start a brand new pack, my period was supposed to start like 2wks later....but it didn't because i started a new pack of pills. If all else fails just call and ask you doctor.

Sounds like the morning after pill has screwed up your cycle a bit, so finish the pack, do your pill free week and if youre still not happy, speak to your doc. As long as youre taking your daily pill correctly (regularly, not being sick, not on antibiotics, etc) and providing you took the emergency pill properly (didnt throw up, etc) then all should be fine

You probably haven't gotten it because of the pill. If you don't get it on your pill-free week, then you can take a pregnancy test to ease your mind, but it's likely that your period may not come until a little way into that week or that you'll skip because you started the pill so late in your cycle. Good luck.

If you waited more than 72 hours before taking the morning after pill, you may want to take a pregnancy test, just to ensure that you aren't pregnant.
With the birth control, you need to make sure that you are taking it at the exact same time everyday. This will help your cycle more normal, meaning that it will be the same time every month.

You need to call a nurse hotline 1-877-285-1286 free. They will be able to help you. I think It may be the pill. But I don`t know.. God bless and hugs from Texas. {:-)

dont panic - finish ur pack, take ur break then if ur period still doesnt turn up get a pregnancy test - the fact is a pregnancy wont show up on a test yet.

If you used the morning after pill then I'd guess that it is all fine.

i would say its just because of your pill but if you are really worried then get a home pregnancy testing kit
