How Will I Know If I Am Pregnant Or Not While Taking Noriday?

My doctor has given me the pill called Noriday to try for the next 3 months... My concern is that I wont have a period at all (how would I know if I was pregnant or not?), and these light flushings of blood can happen at any given moment whilst taking this pill, but yet that isn t considered to be my period! I don t really understand its purpose as I like to have the guaranteed satisfaction of knowing that I will definitely get my period. Can I get any advice here please?

Hi,
I understand your concern.
I would like to tell you that, though with Noriday, here are some menstrual irregularities but it is not said for 100% cases that you will not get your periods.
In most of the cases when you take a contraceptive pill, the chances o getting pregnancy is almost negligible.
Still if you are apprehensive that you might be pregnant, you can do a Urine Pregnancy Test which is readily available over the counter.
Hope this helps.
