on BCP and no af

I have been on the BCP for a while now, my body seems to have adjusted to it just fine with no breakthrough bleeding, etc...any more. Just over a month ago I had af, a normal af and then 2 weeks later I had 3 days of spotting then it stopped. I have been feeling ill, sore and leaking boobs, my stomach has become really bloated and hard, dr. did a dip test and it was negative but still no af, should of come this past weekend. He said I could in fact be pg but it is not picking it up yet or it could be stress that is keeping af away. Any thoughts?

I'm surprised he didn't do a blood test.

I was surprised as well that he did not do a blood test. I will pick up a test this weekend and will test on Sunday if af has not come. I have not missed any pills or taken any late and no meds...so really not sure what is going on. Last Thursday my dr. said for me to stop taking my BCP's until we know for sure, so I missed the last couple of days of the pack and still no spotting. Thank you for your response.

I had been on the pill for a year and a half and still got pregnant. I got my full period though too so i thought that i may not be...but i was. i would check it out at the hospital or keep trying tests. I am no medical expert, but just letting you know it is possible.
