skipped period??
| Sat, 11-11-2006 - 7:20pm |
how common is it while on BCP to skip a month of your period? i have always gotten my period since being on the pill but it has gotten very light..last month i got it for a day and a half on the thurd day of placebo. this month i havnt gotten it yet and i have one more placebo left..i am going to take a pregnancy test to be safe but how could it be possible if i have taken the pill religeously every morning same time? helpp im freaking out bc of no period!

Hi sass2006, welcome!

A good test kit is usually accurate if used at least 14 days after the day of concern. For more about pregnancy tests see: http://www.labtestsonline.org/understanding/analytes/hcg/glance.html

Reports of much lighter and missing periods seem to be getting more and more common on this board lately. You are being careful hon and that's a very good thing so you should be fine. A good test kit is accurate about 2 weeks after the day you had the intercourse of concern.
