Hi Sir, I use contraceptive pills. So I went for a work trip and my packet got finished I just looked for the same type but there was a different brand. I got it because I dont want to have my period whilst on the trip. I took them for the seven days that remained on the trip and stopped when I got back home. My period usually comes the forth day but this time they are quite late. Could it be the pills. Does changing the brand affects it. Because I am not pregnant.

You are not pregnant and the period is late due to irregular timings of the pills and you will get periods in a week

It's due to the pill you have taken, wait for few days, you need to test then after if you miss.
