I forgot to change my patch it's been 2 days since I had to change it. I have been having tenderness in the breast not sure if that's related to the patch or if I could be pregnant because I didn't stick to the patch instructions. What can I do to reduce breast tenderness. Mostly I read online is it happens when you're about to get your period but I had my period like 2 weeks ago. Any suggestions on whether I can be pregnant or not?

How long ago did you need to change the patch but delayed? A delay in the or stoppage in birth control can create a window that might allow for ovulation. Many of the hormonal pill birth control recommend that you take any missed pills within 1-2 days immediately but if you go longer than that to use a secondary barrier method to ensure no pregnancies for the rest of the month. Consider this you could be pregnant but it is unlikely in MY OPINION. I would use barrier protection for the rest of this month though.

Sore breasts aren't a good indicator for pregnancy as you found out it is often the harbinger of your period. A lot of the early symptoms that are associated with pregnancy are also associated with PMS. That being said there is one sure and unmistakable sign of pregnancy and that is a lack of a period. The general guideline is if you haven't gotten your period within two weeks of when you expect it than you should test yourself. A lot of the tests claim to be able to detect before your expected period but the accuracy increases the longer you wait and by waiting the two weeks you can gaurnatee that you've missed your period and not just wasted the test.

but I had my period like 2 weeks ago. (*June 9th?)

Relax for about 2 more weeks. If your next period doesn't come then you can go nuts with worry. Those other symptoms can be anything especially the yeast infection.
