Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I think you should wait for one more week for the periods. Sometimes you may not get the periods just after starting the inactive pills. It can take 5 to 7 days for periods to come. If you have taken pills regularly, there is a little chance of pregnancy. If you want to be sure, do a urine pregnancy test at home it will clear your doubt.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khushboo Priya
