Hello, Steph! How are you?
Some women don't have periods, while taking this hormonal contraceptive and it is nothing to worry about, as long as your doctor says that it's okay and your pap smears have been normal.
The symptoms you're experiencing now are most likely withdrawal effects from stopping these hormonal contraceptives. Once you are on them for awhile, your body gets used to them and it will take awhile for your body to balance things back out on its own.
You may also experience headache, acne, cramping and irregular bleeding, as listed by the FDA.
Is there anything else I can help with?
Why would it stop so randomly though? And maybe I have my pap tomorrow..I should worry about pregnancy right since my blood test came back negative at 5 months? Right
If you took all the pills, without missing any, then pregnancy should not a concern.
As to why it suddenly stopped randomly, I can't really explain. It just does, sometimes, it could also return just as randomly.
If your concerned, feel free to consult your doctor. I can only provide you with the general guidelines provided to the FDA by the manufacturers.
But please, relax. I understand it's scary. When mine started going wonky due to perimenopause, it totally freaked me out, but usually there is nothing to worry about.
Are there any other questions or concerns?
Yeah I never missed a pill just thinking the worst and yeah one more question will taking the pill at the wrong time mess up how accurate the pill should be?
I took my pill at 7 pm and switched it to 5:30 pm
My last menstrual period was on November 14th. We had contact on Nov. 7, 8, 9 & 19th. We used the withdrawal method. I had spotting on Nov. 9, 13, 14 & 21st. I have been currently experiencing yellow to brown discharge for 3 days. I am two weeks delayed and i have also been experiencing abdominal pain for 2-3 weeks now. What is my condition all about?
Hi. I have missed my period for 1 day and I am negative when I take a pregnancy test. Presently my monthly period has not yet come. Do I need to worry about it? How do I get my period back?
I began taking my pills in May and had some spotting half way into my first pack. I'm now just beginning my 4th pack and haven't had a period or any spotting since.
