Most likely ok: As long as you haven't missed any pills, and your pregnancy test is negative, I wouldn't worry. Keep taking your pills as scheduled. Some women will skip, don't have menses or have very light scant flow on the newer lo dose pills. If you get any symptoms of pregnancy though, do another pregnancy test or check in with your doctor and get a blood pregnancy test.

I am on birth control pill. I had breakthrough bleeding midway through the month (fairly heavy, lasted 2 days) and now no period. I am sexually active, but we use condoms along with the pills. Is this normal to miss a period after breakthrough bleeding?
