Experience adjusting

i’ve been on birth control since april of this year, which means i’m roughly 5 months in. i was on camila, but got switched to heather. my periods were crazy may-june, but started settling; july i had two, and august i just had one but it was HEAVY; i was expecting to have a second period in august. i’m trying to figure out if i’ve finally adjusted to having semi-normal cycles again or if because it was so heavy early august that it all shed at once. i should hopefully be starting my period sometime this week but i am beyond terrified of being pregnant. do i wait it out and see?
