Changed Birth Control Pill, Mood Swings After Taking Mercilon. Periods Stopped. Wise To Take A Test?

Hi, I am 30 and in an active relationship, I have had to change my pill so I had a 3 month break and my periods were normal. I started to take Mercilon but it did not seem to agree with me, I had serios mood swings and it did not feel right, I took ot for 2 weeks and then stopped. I was expecting to have my period but still have not had it. My last period was 31 May and I still have not has one. Would it be wise to take a test or could my period just be a little late? Thanks

Hello ma'am and welcome.

The delay could very well be due to the discontinuation of the pill you were on, but as you do have an active sexual life it is always advisable to take a test without delay.

I would recommend you to go ahead with the test as it would be the wisest option there is.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
