A member asked:

I have missed a contraceptive pill and had unprotected sex. i took a double dose the next morning, as well as had unprotected sex. in the late afternoon, i took a morning-after pill ellaone. am i safe from pregnancy, keeping in mind the measures?

Any symptom that is caused by the hormones of pregnancy will turn a pregnancy test positive. Yo need to have a full evaluation including a history/exam and tests. At that point they can sort out the reason for your lack of menses.
