Off Birth Control Still No Period
Posted: 04-29-05 06:06am

I am 25 and have been on birth control off
and on since I was 15. I started them
becuse I had heavy and long periods.
After I stopped taking birth control this
last time I had a period directly after
but not since and it has been about 5
months now. What could be causing this?
Am I even ovulating? I never thought I
would say this but I miss my period. And
what would I do if I wanted to have a
baby?

I was only on ortho tri cyclen (and the
ortho...Lo) for about 3 years.
I just went off it at the end of march.
April I got a period. A normal, crampy
old fashioned period.
But then in may I only had a period that
lasted 1 day. It was very light.
I hear that this isn't weird, but it
definitely isnt normal for me... Im used
to it coming like clockwork thanks to the
pill

Testing

I just bought a pregnancy test... I didnt
want to do it, because I was so sure I
couldnt be pregnant (have had sex once
since going off bc with a condom)... But
figured, its better than finding out that
I am 6 months from now. :/

I hadn't taken it yet when I replied
earlier... My feelings were correct
however, and I will not be having any
children anytime soon. Luckily, I just
don't have my period and am not pregnant.

i am 29 momma to 3 children
i got on depo aug 1998 after I had my
son..
I want to get off depo for many reasons...
With my son I hemorighed ,lost 2 pints of
blood,transfusion at 35 weeks preganant in
my sleep,my placenta ruptured and that has
put a fear in me,i think I will bleed to
death once I do get my period..
After 7 yrs,is the periods the same? I
was a light bleeder went 4 days less
nothing major... I know I will prob be a
heavy bleeder after but I am just scared
of the fact..
I have never missed a shot,i like depo..
No babies ,no weight gain nothing they
told me I could be there depo poster
girl,most ppl dont do well on it,i thank
god I did,i have always been high rish for
having babies
i am healthy,on hb pills ,it is
controled..Otherwise healthy just on depo
and wanting to finally come off it to make
my self normal again tho I realize it
might take yrs but the first sign of blood
I will prob freak..Lol

Depo

I have been on the depo for two years. I
have been off for a week and had
unprotected intercourse. I know that
getting off the depo can make it difficult
to get pregnant again, but i still feel
worried that i could possibly be pregnant.
Anyone know my chances?

ive not had a period in 5 months, and im
only 17! i was on bc pills (monofeme) for
4 of those months, but had a period for
the first 6 on it. i came off it a month
ago and ive not had a period or even i
sign of my period so maybe its just
different bc affecting different people
differently and eventually our systems
will go back to normal...maybe

I had this happen a few months ago and I
freaked out and thought I was pregnant. I
got off of the pill because I missed a few
and figured I should just get back on
track so I would wait for my period and
then start again. We had sex one time in 8
weeks, it was right after I got off the
pill and was waiting for my period. I
ended up waking up one day and had my
period, out of nowhere. The doctor told me
that my body was just adjusting and that
this happens sometimes. It happened to my
sister as well, she had been on birth
control for 7 years and got off because
she was going to try and get pregnant and
she didn't get her period for 6 months.

The chances are slim, but trust me it
happens. I was off for 2 weeks, got my
period, then got pregnant the next week.
So much for it takes years to get pregnant
after you get off of depo!!
I myself am freaking out right now,
because I got off 5 weeks ago. And still
no period! Last time I put myself in the
situation that could lead to pregnancy, I
had 3 weeks left on my shot... but I am
still freaking out! I've already taken two
tests (both negative) but am so tempted to
go waste $8 more just to be sure!! Call
me crazy!
