Worried.. No Period..
Posted: 04-14-07 12:31pm

I've been on Yasmin 28 for about 4 months now.. I've never missed a period.. I took my 4th white pill this morning and I still don't have my period.. I have no cramps or back pain which is very unusual for me.. I'm thinking I'm too early for a pregnancy test but I might anyway..

What do you guys think?

Edit, I guess I should add my bf and I use this as our sole BC method, and he does come inside me.. But I've never forgotten a pill and take them all at the same time everyday

AN early pregnancy test would be accurate.

With that being said, many women will skip a period or two while on the pill, because the pill often shortens or lightens periods dramatically.

Have you taken antibiotics or herbs? Certain drugs reduce the effectiveness of the pill.

No, I'm not on any meds.. I'm stressed to the max at work, and thought maybe that could've contributed.. Are there special "early" pregnancy tests to take? Or just any test?

You can really take any test, even the cheap ones.

the stress may also be causing you to have no period. i know personally my body reacts alot to stress and i tend to stress easly. if im stressed for whatever reason it using delays my period and i am also on yasmin 28. hope this helps but you i would still take a pregnancy test which will also help you stress less about it. good luck
