Accepted Answer

Pregnancy?: Birth control is not 100% - any time there is a question get a home pregnancy test.   If you were recently on antibiotics this may make the birth control ineffective.

Good Luck

Question 3

last period was around june 28, had unprotected sex on july 29 (no birth control) it is now august 17, still no period. no pregnancy symptoms as well?

Hmmm....: Pregnancy is the most common cause of a missed period. If not pregnant, other causes of a late or missed period include:  excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (especially birth control pills), hormonal disorders, etc…  A home urine pregnancy test is very accurate 3 weeks after sex.

Accepted Answer

See your doctor...: Your symptoms warrant an evaluation by your physician.  They would confirm that you are not pregnant (if you have never been sexually active that is an obvious however, in your information you have pregnancy documented as "doesn't know" so it sounds like maybe you think it may be possible?  In addition, hormone levels would likely be tested to see if underlying cause for cycle abnormalities.
