Missed 2 Periods While On Minastrin 24 Fe

I've taken Ministrin 4 Fe for over a year and have only missed 1 period a few months ago. I didn't get my period last month though, and am about to take my third sugar pill for this month but still haven't gotten my period. Should I be concerned since if I don't get this period, I will have missed two periods in a row? Or is this just a possible side effect?

Have you missed any pills? Skipping periods, or not having them at all, can be a normal side effect for some woman that take hormonal contraceptives, according to FDA reports. Others are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms.

Has your doctor stated there is any reason for concern? Are you on any other medications, or have you taken any others recently?
