Freaking out..HELP!

[SunKissed]

Every month I get my period on the Thursday morning after stopping my active pills. This past month I recently switched to Lo Ovral pills. I used to be on OrthoTriCyclen LO.

Lo Ovral has a higher dosage of hormones in it than Ortho Lo.
It is Thursday morning, and I don't have my period yet....or even really any PMS symptoms like usual.

Do you think because of the new pill I might miss this period? Or maybe it made my endometrial wall thin or something so there wasn't much buildup?

I AM SO CONFUSED! I only had sex once, on the last day of my active pills (Saturday). With a condom, and that was fine b/c we checked it.

What's going on here!!? Is this normal or has it happened to anyone else?

I have slight cramps on and off like menstrual cramps, and have been moody and eating a bit more...could this just be from switching to a higher dose pill? Ugh.

As long as you've been taking your pills right, I'd say don't worry about it. It's probably due to the switch. Things should smooth out next month.

Don't worry! You're only a few hours late! Sometimes your period can just be randomly late by a few hours or even a day or two on the pill, ESPECIALLY when switching.

Many, many years ago when I was on the pill I switched and it did the same thing to me. I skipped a whole month.

thanks everyone ... i still havent gotten it yet
on and off i will have a slight twinge of crampiness or tightness, and a slight lower back ache..but then it goes away. I have a little discharge on and off that I usually get before my period...its kinda of stringy and white/yellowish. I just want my period so bad.

Another question: If i dont get my period at all, and I am supposed to start my next pack of pills on Sunday.....do I take the first active pill sunday even though I haven't gotten a period? Or wait til I ever get a period then start taking the pills. UGH. this sucks =(
