I'm not a pill expert but I must admit I thought my MAP hadn't worked when I took it last year because my period was late. So I ended up taking a pregnancy test which displayed as negative, then my period came the next day
So it was just a bit out of synch because of the MAP. Do you think this could be the same for you?
It is only like 27/28 days since your last period, so i wouldnt worry that it was late yet?
Not health risks as such, it's completely within the prescribing guidelines to take MAP whilst on the pill eg when you miss ones or if you've got a stomach upset or are taking other medication. BUT the mix of hormones can often throw your cycle off balance.
A-ha! Cool.
