Daughter Is On Lo Loestrin Fe

She is going to be starting her 3rd pack Thurs, has the 2 brown pills left. Dr said for her to start on her 1st pack the 1st day she starts bleeding, so she did & has taken it the same time everyday. She has gone 6 weeks with no period. Took the last 2 brown of the 1st pack and nothing, we will see what she does today & tomorrow when she takes the brown. She was starting every 2 weeks and going for 10 days and shes 12 yrs old so Dr put her on the pill to get her regulated but so far she isnt having a period. Is this normal? Im on the Depo and dont have a period and love it :)

Yes, it can be normal. These are also hormonal based, just like the Depo that you are on, so it can cause her to skip her menstrual cycle as a side effect.

You should probably consult her doctor just to be on the safe side, since she is so young, but I'm guessing that the hormones will affect her similarly to the way they would an adult woman.

Are there any other questions or comments?

Thanks. Her dr said she would have a very light period & only last 3-4 days after she gets regulated with the pill, but she hasn't had anything. She goes for a checkup in a few weeks. She has no other side effects that dr told her she could have, which is good.
