Pregnant or just worried?

Ari • Have been with my SO since we were 14. We`re both turning 21 this year. ❤️
I have been on birth control for almost three full months now, taking it at the same time every night and never missing a day. My boyfriend and I had sex two weeks ago without using a condom for the first time, but withdrew before he finished. 
I'm supposed to start my period today but I haven't yet. I wasn't worried but now I'm starting to. Maybe it is just late but I'm not sure.

Sometimes when on the pill, even though you're on the last week, it won't start right away. Sometimes it takes a couple days.

In my experience (and that of some friends), the period starts after the third sugar pill.

Birth control can change your period sometimes and if you are worried about pregnancy then continue to use condoms too.

We used both always, it will make you feel better knowing that you are double protecred

Thank you for your response! We always use condoms. We just figured we didn't need it after a little bit and didn't want it. But after we kind of got worried about it. - wondering if the birth control is seriously working!

I really wouldn't worry. If your taking your Birth Control 100% correctly then it's 99% effective which means 1/100 of you getting pregnant. Birth Control stops you from ovulating so if no ovulation you can't get pregnant :)

I will definitely look it up right now. You think my period is just a day or two off? For some reason the doctors made it sound like it would start the exact day I started sugar pills.

It usually starts working within a week in but people don't have unprotected sex until a month later:) you're definitely fine!!
