On Trigestral Contraceptive Pill. Missing Periods. Pregnancy Chances?

Good day,
I am on trigestrel contraceptive pill for about 3 months now. I had intercourse with my husband during April 2013 and had my last period around 17 April 2013. I have always been on the pill i havent skipped once and i did not have any intercourse during this month May 2013. I am on my 5th red pill and my period is just not coming. Is it possible that i could be pregnant.

Hello,
It is quite possible for a female to miss her periods or rather delay her periods inspite of being on regular birth control pills.
There could be various causes for this like...
If you have changed the type of birth control pill
If you have tried to prepone or postpone your periods in between
Increased physical or emotional stress.
Incresed physical activity.
Being on some diet.
If you had some illness recently.
And lastly,if you are pregnant
If you have taken some medicines like antibiotics recently.
Just wait for 2 weeks more and if you don't get your periods,consult a Gynecologist and get yourself examined and investigated properly.
Thanks
