Have you been taking the birth control
pills the whole time? How were you
avoiding conception during the two years
you've been having sex?
Since you took birth control pills and
Regesterone, it's not surprising that you
don't have your period now. Your cycle
will be all messed up. Also, Regesterone
acts as a contraceptive, and it's very
unlikely you got pregnant while taking it.
Did a doctor tell you to take it? Because
it would've been much safer and easier for
you to use your birth control pills to
skip your period instead of adding
regesterone on top of it. Regesterone has
some of the same hormones as your birth
control, and I'm not sure if you should
take them together.
Also, it's very unlikely that a pregnancy
test would be inaccurate after 12 weeks.
If you want to know for sure, can you go
to your doctor for a more accurate test?
By 12 weeks, it should be obvious that
you're pregnant.
So I doubt you're pregnant, the delay in
your menses was probably due to the
medications you were taking. And in the
future, if you want to skip your period,
you can use your birth control pills to do
it instead of taking another medication.
Lastly, if there is ever a chance you
might be pregnant, DO NOT take regesterone
because it may cause serious problems for
the baby. It will not cause an abortion,
but it will cause malformations in the
child.

... Yes, birth control pills are effective
for most women, actually. If you use them
perfectly, you only have a 1-3% chance of
getting pregnant.
If you aren't careful about how you take
them, then no, they might not work. Or you
might be REALLY unlucky and be in the 1-3%
of women who get pregnant while taking
them.
