so my last normal period was around nov 21st and i was still on birth control. i started my new pack of pills that next week and took maybe 6 pills, missed 2 and got my period again the week of dec 6th. Although i continued taking the pills my period lasted that whole week and i took maybe 2 pills the next week but then stopped completely. Technically should've had my period week of dec 19th, but thought it might be late since i just had my period 2 weeks before. 21 days after my last period wouldve been jan 2nd. STILL dont have my next period. i had unprotected sex middle of december, got really scared 3 days ago and took a pregnancy test which was negative. i know messing with birth control like that totally messes up your hormones but its been about 30 days since my last period. how late can it really be? is it possible im pregnant and it didn't show on the test. PLEASE HELP driving me crazy..

You figured it out yourself – messed up hormones are definitely to blame. You took pregnancy test in time, when it is reliable and it was negative so pregnancy is not the cause for late period. But birth control pills definitely might be, especially when you skip pills like you did. Hormones that birth control pills basically are the same ones that your body produces to control ovulation and your menstrual cycle. By stopping BC pills randomly you sort of shock your body so it can’t really start producing its own hormones in time.
