Birth Control Posted: 02-21-07 09:19am
I am 30 yrs old I had my daughter 9yrs
ago. After I had her I was immediately put
on depo prevara for almost six yrs. Then
I went to the pill. Up until a few months
ago I had a regular menstal cycle. Then
all the sudden it just stopped. I thought
I was pregnant but had the tests done and
I wasn't. I even stopped takeing the
pills for 2 weeks to see if I had taken
the pills wrong and that could be the
problem but still no luck. What could be
wrong with me?

I know that it can be very stressful
sometimes when we don't know what it going
on with our bodies. Unfortunatly, I can't
be of much help. You mentioned that you
switched from Depo to oral contaceptives.
How long ago did this occur? I do know
that if you are on a low dose pill, they
are known to give you shorter lighter
periods. Some women (over time) can even
stop menstrating all together. Have you
had any lower abdominal pain or
discomfort? I have had a large ovarian
cyst before. It stopped my bleeding
altogether. (that is how I was diagnosed)
Although I don't know if there is always
discomfort associated. I would seriously
suggest that you contact your Dr and
discuss your concerns with them. While it
may be nothing at all, its always better
safe than sorry.
