Okay well I stopped taking the pill in january after one year of being on them. And I had my period in february it lasted about 10 days. And it’s june now and I haven’t had my period since february.

And I did switch between 2 different brands and missed pills here and there so maybe thats the reason?

Is this normal? Please get back to me thanx

People's cycles can change as they come off the pill. If you haven't had any period at all since .February, you should go see a doctor.

knowledge is power. Don't be freaked out. More than likely it is from coming off the pill - but it is always better to be safe than sorry. ;) good luck!

It isn't unusual ~ but if there is a possibility you could be pregnant, you should take a test. Not having your period doesn't mean something bad is happening. It just means you should get checked out.
