Hi Everyone,
I have started taking Trisprintec, the generic form of Ortho-Tri Cyclen and this was my first pack. I had finished my active pills on 4/22 and I have still not have gotten my period. The first day of my last period was 4/2 and it lasted 1 week and its been already a month!!! I had taken all my pills in the pack. I had unprotected on 4/15. I have cramps and pms pain but nothing comes... I have not been on birth control for more than 2 years and decided to start. I have taken two pregnancy tests and they were both negative. I had all the symptoms of getting my period, as in breast tenderness, pimples and back pain. all that remains is the cramping. I dunno what is going on. I have read your FAQ's page and have been reading the discussions that are pertinent to my problem and i see that sometimes women do miss their period on bcp. I need help and do not know what to do.
All replies would greatly be appreciated. Thanks :(

Hi raust3, welcome!

Hi,
Thanks for the quick responses! I have been taking no supplements or additional meds. plus, is it normal to miss it even though one just starts taking the bcp's? Thats my concern, and it is weird because without the bcp, my period was like clockwork. And after just one pack, its wacky? Plus when I did take the hpt, it was after the week that one is supposed to take the placebo pills. On 4/30 I started taking the 2nd pack of bcp's, so may that also influence it not coming? I am soooooo worried.
Thanks,
Rebecca
