Late Period
Posted: 09-27-04 15:34pm

Last month I wanted to skip my period due to it coming at the wrong time for an event...So I skipped my sugar pills and kept taking my next months set of pills...Now time has come again for my period...I took my last "real" pill on monday...It is now a monday a week later and I have not started at all...I had some light spotting when I went to the bathroom and wiped on saturday and I have been cramping some...Does anyone know if I could have messed up my cycle and that is why I haven't started?????
Thanks!
Chas

It's possible... I tried it once before and it messed me up, although for me I got my period during the middle of the second pack and then again when the second pack ended. I would give it a few extra days.

You should probably ring your doctor for advice about this. I have done what you did many times, and I never had any problems, my period always turns up exactly normally the next time. It isn't really a period, of course, it is just your body responding to the drop in hormones, so maybe your hormones just stayed high this ttime? I think if it was me I would just start the next pack on schedule and then see what happened in three weeks.
