Ok so I have been on Loestrin24 for almost
a year. Throughout this time I only got
my period the first couple of months then
it disappeared. I asked my doctor about
it and he said it was fine. Here's my
question though; last month I missed 3
pills because I was in the hospital from
food poisoning. Afterwards my doctor told
me to throw that pack away and start a new
one. Now this messes up my cycle
obviously, so even though I don't get my
period I still knew it was supposed to be
on the sugar pill days. Now since the
cycle is messed up I'm a little
scared,...will my cycle regulate itself
according to the pills?
Thanks!

Your cycle should regulate itself. Your
body is probably thrown off from missing
those pills. However, did you have sex at
all during that time? If you had sex any
time from the day you missed your first
pill up until a full week after you
started your new pack, there is a chance
you are pregnant. If so, wait 14 days
after your last unprotected sex act and
take a home pregnancy test.
