Pregnancy and birth control.?

Does a woman on birth control miss her period during the placebo week if shes pregnant would that be the sign of pregnancy?

Ive heard the bleeding during the placebo week is not actually your period but bleeding from the hormonal change from on the pill to off. so which is true? and what is a sign of pregnancy while on birth control?

thank you.

If you take hormonal birth control and don't bleed during the placebos, yes, that's a sign of possible pregnancy just like a missed period.

It's true that you don't have a menstrual cycle if you take the pill, since there's no ovulation. The "period" is caused by the drop in hormones (going from the level in the pill to no pill).
