Just started Loestrin 24 this month, go to the brown pills yesterday and only a pen drop of a period at that time. No sign of period today. Light cramping two days ago, and spotting through out the month. Should I be worried?

most women don't start their period until day 3 or 4 of their placebo pills on a 7 day placebo week.

This was my first month on loestrin and i had no period or cramping> I came right off of a cycle of ortho tri cyclen. I am wondering should i be worried, because i am.

i had a little bit of cramping but also no period. Im interested in hearing from other's experience. I did have a little bit of spotting a week ago but now that I am supposed to have my period...nothing

This is also my first time on Loestrin24. I started on a Sunday, first day of my period, and that lasted 4 days. Three days later, i was spotting/light period for 8 days. It is my first day on the placebo pill and still haven't started. I have been experiencing cramps, have acne, and swollen breasts. Will I get my period or did the 8 days make up for it???
