Missed period 5 months after quitting Birth Control
I am in my mid 30s and quit taking birth control 5 months ago after I got married. I have had no period what so ever and I am worried that I might be going through early menopause. Does anyone know if this is normal or if I need to go to the OBGYN? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrea

Re: Missed period 5 months after quitting Birth Control
I quit birth control last December and didn't get my period until May (I'm 25). Some women get their period a lot later than others after quitting. If you're worried, make an appointment with a gyno just to be sure. But it happened to me, and I'm pretty sure I'm not going through an early menopause.
