Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Birth control pills are 99 percent effective with “perfect use,” which means taking the pill at the same time every day without missing a dose. “Typical use” is how most women take the pill, and then it’s about 91 percent effective. Both combined oral contraceptives and progestin-only pills (also known as the mini pill) have a typical failure rate of 9 percent. You should know that some women don’t have a period while on birth control, so a missed period may not necessarily be an easy indicator. My advice for you is to consult your treating obgyn and discuss with him if your missed periods can be attributed to birth control pills or you should do a pregnancy test to clarifies the situation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
