I have been on BC for the last 6 years, on and off in the last year with different kinds. I've been steadily on since April, got one period in May, yet no more. After I missed my first period I didn't take any more pills as a precaution. Now I've missed my 2nd period in a row.
I've heard a lot about periods being irregular and elusive during the first few months after BC but I'm over 8 weeks late now. Although some pregnancy symptoms can be applied to me, there is nothing that couldn't also be attributed to other factors. (being tired, sore boobs, kind of queasy).
My boyfriend is understandably worried that something could have happened during the month of May (where I have missed pills at least on one weekend), but I just don't 'feel' pregnant. I am convinced that I would somehow intuitively feel if something had happened, and I don't feel that way at all.
Firstly, any input would be appreciated, and secondly, how long does it take to get regular periods back? Thanks!
