Hello
Thanks for your query.
As you have taken the BC regularly, chances of a pregnancy are remote.
Also, sometimes BC reduces menstrual flow, and occasionally you might skip a period.
you are having all pre menstrual symptoms.
so wait for a week more, and then repeat the pregnancy test.
that will provide a clearer picture.
Do not worry, as if you turn out to be pregnant, you would still be very much in time for termination.
All the best.
