Second Missed Period?

Updated May 24, 2012

I have been taking Loestrin consistently for about two years, although the timing has been a bit scattered lately (usually within an hour or two every day). Last month, I did not get my period at all. This month, again I am on the second placebo pill and still no period. This has never happened before in the past two years of taking this pill. Normal?

Yes, skipping your menstrual cycle can be a completely normal side effect of taking an oral, hormonal based contraceptive.

However, if you missed any, or took them more than 24 hours late, there is always a chance that you might be pregnant, if you've been sexually active.

You should consult your doctor and have a test done, just to be sure.
