Could missing period after birth control pills mean pregnancy?

It's natural for your monthly period to be delayed after starting birth control pills. This may occur because the pills influence your normal hormonal cycle. In some cases, your body may need to adapt and carry out the necessary changes operationally. Some other causes of a missed period can be tension, illness, or weight alteration. If you're still worried, you could be in contact with the gynecologist who initially gave you the pills.
