Lo Loestrin Fe After Taking Generesse Fe & No Period

My daughter had been taking Generesse Fe for a few years now and just started taking Lo Loestrin this past month. She took the white pills on this past Friday & Saturday, and the iron pills on Sunday & Monday - yesterday & the day before and has no sign for her period yet. She said it feels like she is going to get it but nothing yet and she starts her new pack tomorrow. Is this normal? She called her doctor and of course the first thing recommended was a birth control test. From what I have read this seems normal with this birth control med. But is it healthy not to have a period?

Yes, that is very common with this contraceptive and no, it is not harmful to skip periods. They actually aren't necessary, unless you want to get pregnant. This will also not affect her future fertility.

Is there anything else I can help with?
