Unprotected Sex, Delayed Periods. Taking Microgynon, Rigevidon. Causes For Delayed Periods?

Hello. I ve been using Microgynon 30, had my seven day break and then started taking Rigevidon. I had unprotected sex once while taking Rigevidon, haven t missed the pill once. Now it s a fourth day of my seven day break, but I still don t have my period. Rigevidon is the same as Microgynon. What is the problem that I don t have my period yet?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Yes, Rigevidon and Microgynon contain same medication(ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel).
Since you have not missed one pill, there will be less chances of pregnancy.
I would suggest you to go for urine pregnancy test,since you had unprotected intercourse.

Once pregnancy ruled out, you need not to worry.
Then you need to wait for your periods.
Please continue your medication as per doctor advice once pregnancy ruled out.
Hope I have answered your question.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
