Answer 1

You should defnitely go ahead and test, if not just to ease your mind. Even the dollar store test will show positive a day after your missed period. Go get a test now!

Answer 2

Being late with a period is a good time to test to know whether you are pregnant. The pill is not 100%. But also know that there are all sorts of reasons for being late or missing a period other than pregnancy, including hormonal fluctuations, skipped ovulation, stress, illness, recent weight loss/gain, certain medications, changes in diet.  You could always go to your doctor for a definitive answer.
