Stopped Lo Loestrin Fe 5 Days Ago- Still No Period (Page 3)

Updated

I have been taking Lo Loestrin Fe for 4 months now and i have only had 1 peroid and that was in the first month. I have continued having weird reactions so i have chosen to stop the pill. I stopped it on a blue pill 3 days before i switched to the white. It has been 5 days now and still no period. When should I expect to get it? Pregnancy test was neg a week ago. This drug just really seems to have me messed up. Anyone have any helpfull info? Thanx!

I have been having really bad abdominal pains along with no period too... Did you ever consult a doctor? If so, what did he/she say if you don't mind me asking? I'm very worried and I have practically no way to see a doctor?? :(

hi all. I recently stopped taking his pill, and I've had similar side effects. I stopped around mid september, still no period, and I have weird abdominal pressure in my lower right area. also have slight pain in ovaries on both sides, slight back pain. and nausea sometimes as well. has anyone else felt this pressure? I'm worried it may be something serious.

I felt that pressure and I had your other symptoms too. I was so sure I was pregnant but a couple of days ago I finally got my period and it hurt so bad!

No ma'am you aren't alone. I was on it for 10 months and when I stop it was like I spotted for like two weeks (so weird) then it stopped and I didn't get my period for about two months and in that time is when I had the stomach pressure, back pain, and nausea and I really thought I was pregnant already and the other morning when I woke up it was that back pain and pressure times ten but now I feel better and no more pressure. When stopped taking it I was reading about people getting major blood clots from this med and I was thinking I should have read that sooner. I'm glad we now know we aren't the only ones that has the same symptoms ;)

Everything you guys are saying is happening to me as well! I stopped taking the pill mid September and still no period. Was worried I was pregnant but now after hearing all this I'm just concerned about what my body is going through. We are going to try for baby #2 but not for awhile and I'm just worried about what this pill did to me:( hoping it didn't screw me up so badly that it's going to be a problem conceiving again! If anyone finds answers please post!!!

Hello ladies. I started taking lo loestrin in October, I didnt get my period in November so I freaked out and stopped taking them. Its been 3 weeks and still no period, i took 3 pregnancy tests which all came out negative but im still worried as to why I havent gotten my period. How long after you stop taking the pills should you get your period ? Keep in mind Ive only been on the pill for one month.

I stopped taking it last April, and my period started again in early July. There is time in between with this pill. I've been pretty regular since and even started using ovulation tests. Had four days of positive results :). Good luck ladies. It will all work out.

I'm currently taking my pills but about to end the pack and deciding if I should stop taking them for good, but worried if my acne will return? My face has been clear since I've taken it. I've been on this for 2 years and have had no periods, I don't know what to expect?

I also have been on the pack for two years without any period. I just stopped taking the pill and have no gotten my period back. How long did it take you to get your period and become regular?

I was on it for 2 years, no period, it's a normal reaction. Just be patient. Your body will get used to it. I had no problems. It even cleared my skin. To have something really work for you, give it at least 6 months. Off course stop the pill on more severe reactions. But to clear the normal part about the period, I got scared to with no period. I called my Doctor and she said it was normal. Hope this helps.

Hey all I browsed this looking for comfort on the coming OFF lo loestrin fe.
I started it dec '12 & returned to the dr because I was bleeding out but was assured to give it time & it was normal. So things cleared up & thru summer I had no period! Was fun but wore a panty liner always to be safe.
Then about sept '13 I got a week of brown light odd 8 day spotting & kept occurring once a month after, with zits and crazy pms.
I was due for my annual in jan. as my yrly pack would be out, so I stopped & wasn't seen until feb 18. My point being dr gave me a new pill that I'll be normal again but told me not to start it until I get my period. Well it's march 3rd. Great wait kinda want my period back!!

Yes, I had pain in my abdomen for the first couple of weeks after ending it. From what I've been told, it's your body getting rid of/used to not having the steady dose of hormones...

I am a 25 year old and I was on loestrin FE from 2007-2012 and then from 2012-2014 was on Lo Loestrin - I hadn't had a period the entire time I was on the pill starting with my first week. I stopped taking my pill June 18, 2014 and started my period today, July 11, 2014. I can't really remember what it was like to have one, but my cramps are intense, like crippling, but I really can't recall having craps or not before, as I started my period in the summer of 2005. The only bad side effect I experienced was SERIOUS nausea. But that is it! My doctor said that it was likely I wouldn't get a period for 3-4 months AFTER I stopped the pill, but I started within a month, its a regular flow - a little heavier this morning than now - but seems to be okay now. (Minus the cramps, ouch.) My gyno is one of the best in my state - and when she told me I could stop my pill (in April) she scheduled an appointment with me for a follow up to make sure everything was going okay since I was on the pill for so long (and because I am looking to get pregnant as well.) My follow up is the end of August. She also placed me on prescribed prenatals to start taking the day AFTER I stopped my birth control, I started those June 19, 2014. I don't know if whatever they are has helped or changed my outcome.

Not every story is a horror story! This pill was great for me, however I was placed on it for medical issues, not as actual "birth control."
