Ok, so I just turned 20 and I haven't had a period in 8 months. I was on the pill for two years and got off the pill a year ago because my husband and I got married and decided I need to get off so my body can get rid of all the built up birth control so when we do decide to have a child we wouldn't have to worry about my bifth control. I had a normal period before I got on birth control and after I got off it in January up until May of last year. And then all of a sudden it just quit happening. I went to the doctor to get a thyroid test and a blood pregnancy test after missing one and half months. I wasn't pregnant and my thyroid test come back negative. I haven't been able to go to the doctor because I was waiting on my husband's company insurance to go through. And we just got insurance and I haven't had a chance to go to the doctor yet, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this because I am going out of my mind. I have pretty much been the same weight since I got off birth control, no more gain no more loss. It's just a little scary to me because my mother had cervical cancer about 5 years ago. If anyone has been through this I would love to hear what you know. Thanks:confused:

8 MONTHS! Holy hell! You need to go to a gynecologist right away!

Don't get so stressed. It really could be a number of things, but you really do need to be checked out by a gynecologist. Unfortunately, without knowing your medical history and not being able to do a physical or take the necessary lab work, it is impossible for us to tell for sure.

I went through 2 years without a period, yet during that time I conceived my daughter. Docs never found out what was going on, but I was still able to have children, 2 since that time. So, it may not be a medical emergency, but still should be checked out again.

hope someone could tell me a bit more about this... I have had pcos for the last 3 years and my periods have always been irregular, until 3 months ago I was guaranteed my period on the 8th of every month until now. I was due on the 8th of Feb. and had a active sex , and haven't had a period since Nov.2010. So bought 4 standard pregnancy tests all which were negative. I then started worrying as was still waiting for my period, so went to the hospital for check up URINE TEST IS NEG also,they have told me I now need to wait for another week to wait my period if its come this month.

I used HPT yester its turn to negative again. But I really feel I'm a pregnant all the symstoms is I have is like a preggy women I never enounter this kind of situation right now I'm so confusing..
or is this not a 0 so I must be pregnant? I will go for my check up this coming Saturday..
