Hi I'm joelle and I'm 21 yrs old. I went off the mircette birth control pill in October and for two months I had periods that came about 6 weeks apart... before going off the pill and before I started the pill they were like clockwork every 28 days. But I did get those two periods of normal length and heaviness. But after my January 5th period I haven't had one since and it is march 5th today. During that time I did have unprotected sex, but I took three at home pregnancy tests ,each about 2 weeks apart, after my first missed period and they all said negative. Im concerned but I don't feel any different... I haven't gained weight or had and morning sickness. Also I haven't been losing weight, exercising or dieting too much and am not overweight, all things I heard can make you miss periods. I am under a normal amount of stress nothing too out of the ordinary.so I don't think that's the cause. Please let me know what to do. Im getting worried.

Sometimes when you come off the pill it takes a little while before your body returns to "normal" and begins to regulate itself again. You should see your doctor to make sure things are okay.

P.S. I won't preach about the unprotected sex because I am going to assume that it was with one person, you are both monogamous and have been checked for STDs. Otherwise... :O!!

Yeah... takes awhile to return to "normal"... whatever that is.

You're just in the hot seat for a little bit. Wish I could make you feel better. You're just going to have to do the time for a few more months.

You know you had unprotected sex and are paying the price. I'm not criticizing you... I've done it too. But this is the price you pay, at the very least. My first girlfriend did this dance many times and we were lucky... though we did know a little about how to tell when fertile...

Your post indicates you know all of the things that can offset a woman's period. God only knows what normal is concerning a woman's cycle.
