I got my period on wednesday june 7th and it last 5 days. I started my pack of pills on sunday june 11th and took them regularly then I missed pills on june 18th and 19th. I took two on the 20th but stopped taking them since. I've had unprotected sex a couple days after and before the missed pills. On wednesday june 21st I got my period(so I think) maybe its just spotting. It's lighter than my usual period but I still need to change my tampon every 4 hours or so. But i've had some cramping everyday and my breasts are very tender.(maybe thats just because of the pill) it is now the 27th and the bleeding hasnt gone away (usually my period only lasts 5 days thats why I dont think I have my period now..Just breakthrough bleeding I guess?) my actual period is due july 5th. What are the chances that i'm pregnant? The only symptoms i've really had is breast tenderness. But is there a chance I may get or have gotten pregnant

You are very right it could just be because of the pill and stoping and then re-taking it again. However try as hard as you can to not miss any days. I missed one day on my birth control and then took an extra one the next day since I missed the one the day before. I did get pregnant from that and only had sex once. So it is possible you could be pregnant I would defenitly take a test. Im not trying to scare you just making sure you know. Hope everything else is okay.

You should try a pregnancy test! Dont wait for long, it might be too late otherwise.
