Lo Loestrin Fe Missed Period After Switching Brands

I have been on the birth control aubra for 5 months and usually bled during my 7 day placebo week. However I recently changed brands to lo loestrin fe. I finished the whole pack and I have not gotten my period I'm a little nervous but I always took my pills on time and never missed one. I didn't spot or have any break through bleeding either. I started a pack when I would have started my old birth control pack as that's what the website told me to do. Is there any way that I could be pregnant or is missing a period normal?

The only way to be sure, of course, is to check for pregnancy, but skipping periods, or having irregular cycles can be normal side effects of oral contraceptives, according to FDA reports. Other side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, and headache.

Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications?

Some women stop having periods, while using hormonal contraceptives.
