still no period

I got off the pill April 5, after not having a period for 3 months, and 3 negative pregnancy tests. Dr put me on 10 days of Provera May 5, after another negative pregnancy test. Still no period in June. Dr put me on Ovcon 35 and Premarin June 9 for 3 weeks. Does this stuff make you gain weight and your nipples sensitive? I am a slender person, avg 120 LBs, but sure feel pregnant from weight gain! I have to admit, I am an ice cream feind, I'm at 135 LBs now. I'm 37 and really afraid my good metabolism is leaving me!

I'd guess that your doctor's theory is that by giving you all the extra estrogen, the lining of your uterus will grow so much that there isn't enough progestin in the Ovcon to maintain it (or barely maintain it), so that when you stop the active pills at the end of the pack, you'll have a serious period. It could happen! And I hope it happens, I can't see why it wouldn't.
Let us know how it goes, okay?
