Ok well I'd really like some input on my situation. About two years ago I was put on birth control to start my period (and it worked immediately). Just recently I had to go off of it for a little while because of loss of health insurance. I did not get my period. I took a HPT and it was negative. I am wondering if my system has stopped working again, could I be pregnant, or is my system just needing time to get used to having no hormonal therapy and will pick up again? Any input helps but if there are any medical experts out there I'd especially like to hear from them. Again I don't have health insurance so please please don't tell me to go see a doctor... I already know I need to. Thanks everyone!

I think it is possible that you just haven’t started cycling naturally again as yet. If irregular periods were a problem before they may well reappear.
Have you considered going to your local Planned Parenthood Clinic or public health service for treatment and discounted BCPs? The PP Clinic locator is: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/Zip.htm PP usually has a means tested schedule of prices. Give PP a call and see what they say. Let us know how you’re doing, ok?
Take care,
Jill
