I am currently on birth control pills and take them almost at the same time each day. In June I missed 2 but took them as soon as I remembered the next morning. I continued taking my pills as directed but I didn't have a period 2 weeks ago when I was on my my white pills. I took a test 2 days after my missed period and it was negative but I am worried that I could be pregnant again. Should I spend the money on another test or am I wasting my time?

It could be a hormonal imbalance due to missing those pills, but its unlikely you could be pregnant unless that week you had rabbit urges. Check with your doc, because it does happen that woman get preg on BC and if you end up preg u need to not take those pills. Have a routine blood test done with Hcg checked also.
Good luck!

The pill just doesn't work for some people. Instead of wasting money on another HPT, I would suggest you go to the doctor and have them do a blood test to check for pregnancy.
If you are not pregnant, then talk to your doctor about the problems you are having with the pill.

Spend the money on another test, just for peace of mind. Its unlikely that you're pregnant, but you could be, based on the pills you missed and because there are times when people get pregnant while on birth control [though very very rare].

I would buy another test to be sure. Sometimes it does not always show up that you are pregnant.
My moms friend took 3 test, 1 every week after her missed period and all said she was not pregnant but when she went to the doctors and got a blood test done it came back that she was pregnant.
If you are still taking BC stop immediatly because BC can deform the baby

you should test.. it is always possible to get pregnant.. bc pills are only 99% effective.. and although that is a small margin it still is.. my mother in law had 5 kids.. 4 of them were concieved while on a birthcontrol method.. pills, depo, diaphram, iud, and pills again... if you dont want to spend the money on a test.. go to your local planned parenthood and take a free test.. you can do that when ever you want.. no questions asked..

No birth control is 100% effective. So I would wait a couple weeks to see if you get it. If not, then buy another test. Or go to your doctor.

FYI...A friend of mine was told she could have kids but was put on the pill to regulate her periods and ended up pregnant.
