Should i take a pregnancy test the now or wait until after i have finished the packet and take it then?

Take care

 When you start a new pill, it does screw up your cycle. So you might not be pregnant, your body just might be adjusting to the hormones. But, you never know.
My two favorite aunts (Dragonette and CD) gave you good advice. Take the test just to ease your mind!! Then you'll know! We can't tell you if you're pregnant or not... but that little test can. Go ahead and pick one up, take the test and take it from there.

 Technically it's not that unusual to miss a period on the pill, especially if you're under a lot of stress at school etc. However I think taking a test is a good idea just to be on the safe side and to stop you worrying. Plus if you are pregnant the contraceptive pill can sometimes adversely affect the baby but keep taking it till you've done the test.

 Take the test, at least it will make you less worried.
