I started taking the pill in August and it is now November, I still have not gotten my period. Every week I am supposed to get my period though I get normal cramps and break out, just no bleeding. Any ideas on what is happening?

I don't think you understand... you are not supposed to get your period every week. You are only supposed to get it once a month.

Are you taking the pill every day at the same time? Have you been on antibiotics since you started the pill?

No no no every week I am supposed to get my period( that 1 week during the month) I get the symptoms of my period I just don't bleed

It's going to take time for your body to adjust to the pill. Have you taken a HPT? If not, I suggest you do so.

Yes I've taken many, and also have gone to a clinic. All the tests have said negative

It might be that your body is still adjusting. I didn't get my period on the first week after I stopped it either and my gynecologist said there was nothing to worry about, and that it would come later on, and it did. 3 months is a lot though. The period you get while on the pill is not really a period, it's just bleeding because you're taking a break. So I suspect that this pill is not very convenient and doesn't work well on you. Just call your doctor and tell him/her, he might just give you another one to try.
