What Causes Delay In Periods Despite Taking Contraceptives After Having Sex?

I started Nora B birth control almost 2 months ago. I have about two periods a month. Usualy starting at then end of one month and going into the next. I had my first period from April 2 to the 6 and then a week later I spotted heavily from the 12th to the 15th. I was supposed to have started my period four days ago but have not, and I m worried because two weeks ago a condom broke while I was with my boyfriend. Should I be worried?

Hi
Welcome.
The contraceptive pills are highly effective if taken regularly without missing them. If you have taken it regularly you are less likely to be pregnant. But you can do urine pregnancy test after week of missed period
Hope this helps
Take care
