No period for over 6 months

Hi All!

Just wondering if I should be concerned. I've stopped the BC since March . I'm not trying to conceive but I haven't received my period over 6 months. I don't have any problem with this but should I be concerned? What will be the affects if I don't look into this?

Thanks!

what bc form were you on? Sometimes it takes a few full cycles for your body toget back into a "normal pattern".....If you're worried I would see your gyn or at least put a call into them.That does seem like a long time though...((HUGS)) good luck

I was on Tri Cyclen for almost 10 years from 16-25...It just feels unnatural that I'm not going through period cycles as one should.

Thanks =)

Hi kittykat888,


Your cycle should have returned by now.

Thanks,

My period has always been irregular which is why I went on the pill - to regulate and therefore get rid of my acne, which as worked! I've never been to a gyn. Does this require referral of a family doctor first?
