A question about Period
I just finished my blue pills, and this week I will be on my sugar pills. Now usually my period falls just 3 days at the end of my blue pills and carry into my sugar pills. I still haven't gotten my period yet. I am beginning to worry. I have no cramps, no signs of my period coming, I am really worrying. I have had sex with my boyfriend, but it is always protected. I don't want to have to worry about that. I just started being on birthcontrol, this is my 5th month. Could this be my body adjusting? I don't know?
Answers:
It doesn't really matter when it comes within the placebo week. It can come any time or not at all for some women. I don't know what pill you're on but I've read that women on Loestrin24fe and sometimes Yasmin don't get their bleed at all while on that brand of pill.
When you're on the pill, not having a period doesn't mean you're pregnant, necessarily. It's more likely that the hormones in the particular brand of pill are causing you to not have a withdrawal bleed as you should during your placebo week.
If it really bothers you to not have a withdrawal bleed then you should switch pills. But for some pills, it's more common to not have that bleed than with others.
