Please please help
So heres my dilemma
I have been on birthcontrol necon since January of 06. For most of the year.. I never took my sugar pills (which promote your period) and I have just slacked off for days at a time on taking the regular pills.. and wait for my period to come…which it normally came within 4-5 days. Well for the most part of February 07 I didn’t really take the pill…as soon as I would start spotting, I would start taking it again for a couple days then stop again. Well I had only taken a couple pills in march… and no period has come yet… so its been over a month.
I started getting ALLL of the pregnancy symptoms towards the end of march.. I home tested and blood tested at the drs office and all were negative.
Currently I have not taken a single birthcontrol pill… and no period.
Im still having nipple tenderness like crazy.. and headaches here and there.
People seem to claim this is a side effect of the birthcontrol.. which would make sense… but I never took it consistently. I have a 4 year old daughter.. and these were the SAME symptoms I have when I was pregnant with her. My husband and I would love to have another baby… but im concerned as to why im not having a period.
Im having slight abnormal pressure today.. like mild cramping and extra discharge.. which makes me think I might be ovulating… Im just confused and would like some input on other peoples thoughts.

IF you do not take your pills consistently, then you can easily become pregnant.

TAKE A TEST.

The sugar pills do not promote a period, what causes your period is the withdrawal of hormones.

The sugar pills are simply there to keep you on schedule.

I took a blood test through my doctors office on March 30th and it was negative. I also took another urine test a couple days ago.. and it to was negative.
I was very inconsistent with my birthcontrol pills.. and would normally have my period within 4-5 days of not taking them. I havent taken them in over a month.. and NO period. All tests negative.. but having the symptoms. The nipples tenderness is the one that really baffles me.
I just dont know what to think or who to talk to. I dont have a set doctor whom I see.

There is a possibility that your body is simply adjusting to the lack of pills.

You do need to use BC consistently in order to not have bleeding problems, or delayed periods.
