Stress can cause you to not have your period or to just make it late. Birth control can also do the same. If you are concerned that you may be pregnant, ease your self by buying a pregnancy test. You can get them at the dollar store and they work just as good as the expensive ones.

Yes you should go get a pregnancy test, and yes there are other reasons for skipping a period. But at this time it is very important for you to know if you are pregnant. If you are (and interested in keeping the pregnancy) you need to know so you can discontinue taking the pill and start taking care of yourself. Taking birth control pills while pregnant is not medically advised. Periods can be skipped for alot of reasons...even stress.

There are lots of reasons, but first ask did you have unprotected sex? If not then it could be your body adjusting to the birth control. It could be that you got lots more exercise than you are used to, it could be stress. Check with the pharmacy and find a product that used to be made and sold over the counter by Lydia Pinkham (can't remember the name) that is designed to bring on your period if that is what you want. Drink plenty of cranberry juice as it is a natural diuretic and will help with water retention.

The other conclusions could be stress related or did you happen to miss a pill? If I were you I would definitely take a pregnancy test.

There could be a number of different reasons... how old are you? Did you miss a pill?
It could just be irregular this month... I would get a pregnancy test, if it is negative, but you could keep testing if you don't get it.

it could be that your system is acting up. it happens some times its like your body goes through changes on its own. But wait 5 days and take a test to be sure.
