Does Fluoxetine Interact With Microgestin?

Hello, I am a 25 year old female. I don t have any children and I have a question regarding Fluoxetine. I have been taking Fluoxetine 20mg since 6/22/16. I also take birth control called Microgestin. I started my last week of the BC pack on Sunday but I haven t started my menstrual cycle yet. I m about 4-5 days late starting my period. Is it possible the Fluoxetine is affecting my menstrual cycle after only taking it for 22 days?
