*help* Late Or Missing Period After Getting Off the Pill Posted: 11-08-04 03:50am
I was on the pill for 2 months from august
to september 2004 and stopped in
mid-september after the end of the pack.
I got my period on time in early october,
and I had expected to get it also in early
november (normally it comes within 28
days), but I still don't have it!
Is it possible to have irregular periods
after getting off the pill? Even if I had
a regular period right after getting off
the pill? Or should I continue panicking
that I am pregnant??
I'm so worried, can someone please help??

I'm in the same situation. I stopped
taking the pill in the 3rd week of the
pack. I had my last period on september
23rd. I haven't had a period yet. I been
having sex but I don't know if it's
because of the pill or I might be
pregnant.

Missing Period ... Maybe the Pill? Posted: 11-08-04 19:38pm
I stopped taking the pill at the end of my
last cycle in mid september and haven't
had another since. I was hoping someone
could give me any information as to
whether this is a common problem, or
possible pregnancy is more likely. I
have taken several at home tests, all of
which have come up negative, but my
doctors office seems to think that the
lack of a period is not likely to be from
going off the pill. Thank you.

Not to Worry Posted: 12-18-04 02:18am
I have also had the same problem. I got
off the pill in september after being on
it for 10 years and have not had a period.
I went to the doctor after missing my
third one and he said not to worry about
it yet that it just takes a while. I have
also taken several pregnancy tests that
have all been negative and he said those
are very accurate so he did no other
tests. I was suppossed to go back for my
yearly in feb. But he said to wait until
april so by then I would have a few good
cycles hopefully. Hope this helps!
