It never hurts to take a home pregnancy test. It will ease your mind and stress does bad things to your body. You can actually talk yourself into having pregnancy signs.
Many of the physical conditions you are experiencing can indeed be caused by the pill. The change in period and the headaches are COMMON side effects of the pill.
Remember there is no way to have sex and be 100% safe from pregnancy.

I think you should get a test. But the pill does make you eat more and give you headaches, it made me feel tired and i gained a little weight. I liked being on the pill my face cleared up no more acne. But you can still get pregnant if your on the pill you should take a test because if you are pregnant taking the pill will harm the baby. Also there are side affects of the pill one example was that after i was off my period i took the pill for sunday night and monday night then tuesday i got really sick and threw up and it continued for 6 months because of the pill but the pill acts different for people just be careful. Good Luck!!!

There's always a possibility but the chances are slim. Have been on antibiotics or had the runs. That reduces the effectiveness of the pill. Did the condom burst at the same time.
There are many reason why a period is late not just panicking and if you really want to know buy a pregnancy test.

There may be a chance that you could be preggers. The most you can go without taking your pill and be able to play "catch up" is two days, which is what i understand. Usually if it is 3 days or more, you should use a back-up method. To clear you mind, you SHOULD take a pregnancy test, stress can delay a period.

If he wore a condom, and you had only made the mistake of missing a couple days, I would say your chances of getting pregnant are slim to none. Condoms are almost full proof despite the 96% effective, you got to consider that most of the 4 % were people who didnt simply want to admit they werent wearing one. Good job on the responsibility factor, you are doing everything you can.

if you used a condom then it should be ok, but if you mess with your pill that can cause problems. It says not to take more than two at a time. If you read the instructions. Take a test and get the answer.

You can still get pregnant if you use a condom and are on the pill. Believe me I know, it happened to me! But brown or dark red means old blood. If you skip three days don't take them that third day. Just take one, it's not good to take all three. ......It's probably your period, if your concerned....then wait and take a test

Its not gonna have happened if the condom was intact and there was no contact with sperm before hand ... if it split its possible but also highly unlikely but there is a margin of error. Either way these symptoms may be something that could be problematic so contacting a doctor wont hurt

computerbuddy should have his hands amputated. Giving a link is okay. But writing a book is not. He interrupts a conversation to make a never-ending speech. What is he trying to prove about himself, what an idiot he is?
Having said that, you need to get a doctor to give you a blood test for pregnancy. Then you will know one way or another.

It could be possible. Sometimes sperm gets away from a person leakage before the condom, plus the pill is not always effective. Good luck
