Miss period?
Posted: 04-15-08 00:35am

Okay, I am 18. I just started birth control and I took my last pill on Thursday. I was suppose to get my period yesterday or today and now I'm getting a bit worried because I haven't gotten it yet. I'm pretty sure I can feel some cramping but I don't know. It's kind of scaring me. I've not had sex so I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnant haha. I just don't know if this is normal or not or if anything is wrong with me. My sister who takes birth control at the same time as me already got hers and my mother keeps questioning about mine. Should I be worried about this?

This is normal. Birth control can cause lighter periods, and occasionally no period at all. Also, your period can come any time during the placebo week. Just because your sister gets it one day doesn't mean you will too. Your bodies are different and may react different ways to the pill.
