I have taken 3 days of period pills and today should be the fourth pill, but no period. Is this normal or should I get a prego test?

Easy, calm down.
I don't get my period until my fifth "period pill".
If you just started your pills it will take a few pill packs to get regulated.
Then there IS the 1% chance you COULD be pregnant (as NO CONTRACEPTIVE is 100%!).

If you are late for you, then yeah, get a pregnancy test. You can have delayed periods on the pill for some of the same reasons that you can have them off the pill, but rather safe than sorry.
If this is your first month on the pill, I'd give it a day or two. I take the first placebo (sugar) pill on Sundays and my period doesn't begin until very early in the morning on Thursdays. Some women have hardly any bleeding when they take birth control pills... you may be one of them.

If you don't get your period by the time you start your next pack then sure, take a test. However, if you took your pills EXACTLY as you should have (on time, every day, and didn't take any medications that might have interfered), then your overall chances of pregnancy are less than 3%.
If you're just starting your pills (this is your 1st pack) then missing your period is very often quite common.

Depends on how long you've been on them. If you have been taking the pills the same time each day (active pills) and you usually get your period now, I'd wait out another day. If you don't get your period, I would consider getting a pregnancy test only because the use of Birth Control pills are contraindicated in pregnancy.

in case you acquire your era and have not had intercourse when you consider that, then you particularly are no longer pregnant. only be greater careful next time. while you're somewhat annoying approximately transforming into pregnant, use a returned up delivery administration technique, alongside with a condom, for the the remainder of the month when you consider which you have been late taking your first pill. undergo in concepts, the pill isn't one hundred% valuable even whilst taken completely. So taking a pill late could make it much less valuable.

Are you new to the pill? If so it may take a few months to really regulate your period. I don't start my period until like the 6th "period pill". If your new to the pill give it some time.
