Question : my girl friend had taken an i pill on 9th date of the month and she was suppose to get her period date on 18th of this month, but still she didn't get it, so want to know what could be the reason, has she got pregenant?
Brief Answer:
I pill
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I read your query and I understand your concerns.
She is unlikely to be pregnant.
She will have delayed periods this time due to the ipill she has taken.
I suggest you wait for another 5 days. If she doesn't get her periods get serum beta hCG blood test done to confirm pregnancy.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Regards
