Hi,
I understand your concern
I am afraid you are irregular in taking your contraceptive pill. The fact you had period in spite of being on active pill indicates it.
Again you had unprotected sex 30th Sept. to 6th August and again you claim to be on last sugar pill-----
In such a situation it is important to exclude pregnancy by Blood HCG testing around your next periods.
If test is +ve, MTP is mandatory- for OC pill is harmful for baby.
If it's -ve, wait for period to come/ consult a doctor for delayed period ( if at all seen)& get a through instruction for brand of OC to suit you & also method of taking it.
* please note, Oral contraceptive pills need to be taken cyclically, without a break-through out menstrual cycle.
Thanks.
