In my epxerience, I don’t think that you can get pregnant so soon after coming off birth control pills. One of the expected side effects of contraceptive pills is a temporally lack of ovulation after coming off them. Most of the women (99%) establish their normal menstrual cycle (with ovulation) within the first 6 months after stopping birth control pills. You can take a home pregnancy test after the 10th of September if you don’t get your next period before then.
