late period on early months of bc - Birth Control Message Board

hi, i have been on yasmin 28 for almost 2 months now. i started taking it becuase ihave HORRIBLE cramps and get bad cysts; i am NOT sexually active with my boyfriend, nor have i ever been any other time. my questions are:
*i usually take my pills at night in between 11-1 a.m. i forgot a pill on a tuesday night and took it at 8 the wednesday morning (when i remembered) and the regualar pill at night. does that count as a skipped pill?
...if so...
*my boyfriend came to see me at school 8 days after the "skipped"(?) pill and we did fool around but no sex (penis touched vulva, no ejaculation). is there any possible risk of pregnancy there?
...the reason i ask...
*i took my third white pill tonight and i still havent had pre-period cramps, thus no period yet. what's the deal? could my body be adjusting? is it normal for it not to have come yet?
ALSO
i developed a slight yeast infection and took a yeast infection pill last week (starts with an f...?) could that have anything to do with the late period? i read all the manuals and it didn't say anything....

thanks to all who read this! your comments are appreciated

I highly doubt that you would be pg as it would not be classed as a missed pill. If you take your pill within 12 hours of you normal time then it is supposed to be fine. I've done this a few times myself.

I don't usually get my period until the 4th or 5th white pill and I've been taking it for 2 years now. It may just be your body adjusting to the pill. I would wait a few more days yet before worrying about it. If it doesn't come by the time you are to take your active pills again then either take a hpt or see a doctor.

I agree with Saka-- I wouldn't worry about it.. On the pill I would get my period on Tuesday Morning's so the 3rd pill. (I never take the sugar pills) But my sister she wouldn't get hers till Thursday morning so the 5th pill. All our bodies are different and think of it this way the later it comes the shorter your period will be ! hehe.. Yeah and you arn't pregnant. I missed 1 pill during my 4 yrs so I took it the next day with the one for that day! and I was sexually active never used a condom and I was fine! i wouldn't worry yourself too much!
