I have been taking birth control regularly for years. I even set alarms to take it at the same time of day every day. I should have started my period Wednesday. Home pregnancy test currently shows negative. Has anyone had this happen before? Thanks for the advice.
Re: Period late on birth control. Advice?
Go to your doctor? Maybe your O'd later than usual or something else is wrong. Go to your OB for some bloodwork.

In the many years I was on hormonal bc, first thei pill and then the nuvaring, I missed my "period" twice.
I got pregnant with my son while I was on BC pills. I took it everyday the same time...no changes at the time...I guess I was just that small percent.
BUT...my AF was SO regular while on BC..that when I didn't get it on scheduled day...I took a test next morning and it was positive IMMEDIATELY.
Good Luck
A few months before my wedding, I got on a low-dose birth control pill. I had a couple "periods" like normal, but right after my honeymoon, it never came. Well I started FREAKING out that I was pregnant with a honeymoon baby, because the time change threw me off and I took some pills late. It turned out I wasn't pregnant, and I actually missed a few more "periods" while still on that pill. However, when I was on another brand of pill a few years before that, I never missed the bleeding either. I'm sure you're fine, but if you're still worried, take another pregnancy test in a week.

Wrong. Progesterone only BC works primarily to trick your body into thinking it is already pregnant, therefore not releasing an egg. Some types, like the mini-pill, also change the environment of your uterus on the off chance an egg is released.
