She could be pregnant or it could be that the disruption in taking the pill threw her cycle off. Give it a few days or get an over the counter pregnancy test. The Equate works just as well. I know, because I have been pregnant six times.
Only have two girls. The rest were miscarriages.

If her cycle was normal for her then it's probably her stopping the BC but there is always a chance so i wld. take lynn970's advice...if she has already missed her start day then a preg. test should tell and a doc told me that u can but the storebrand or the most exprnsive but they all pretty much work the same...

Chances are -she is not pregnant. When you stop taking the pill, it throws or can throw your cycle off.

IF the last time you had sex was early July, then she had her period later that same month, then you probably have nothing to worry about. It is VERY common for womens' menstrual cycles to get thrown off by starting, stopping, or changing birth controls. If she is that worried, tell her to take a test to put her mind at peace.
