Stopped Taking Lo Loestrin 2 Months Ago, No Period?

I took Lo Loestrin for about 4 months and had to stop when I finished the 4th pack.
So when I stopped it was the beginning of last month. I got a period around this time last month, no issue.
This month however, I did take a couple pills for a couple days, and have not gotten my period yet. I have had sex but never unprotected.

Do you think I should be worried about pregnancy, or is this due to my going off the pill/taking a couple at the beginning of the month?

Hi. I too have stopped the lo loestrine fe after two months. I was on Yaz prior to switching to lo loestrine fe for many years. Ether way, I never got my period during those two months on the lo loestrine fe. I decided to stop, as my husband and I are trying to conceive. I haven't gotten my period and am freaking out a bit. I've taken pregnancy tests and ovulation tests, all which have been negative. I have been extremely nauseous and have been getting terrible headaches since I stopped this pill. How long will it take until I get my period??? Has anyone else had similar reactions?? Any advice would help. Thanks!!

I went on lo loestrin fe in June, because of heavy periods. It was my first time on the pill. I didn't like the way it made me feel. I stopped taking it less than 2 months from staring. I have not had a period or spotting since June. Took a test and it was negitive? Is this normal?

In November of 2014, I had a miscarriage that caused alot of heavy bleeding...before this I had always had periods every month, usually bad cramping & lasted around 4 to 5 days. My doctor gave me the Depo shot to stop the bleeding from the miscarriage. In about 24 to 32 hrs the bleeding stopped. I was supposed to go back February 2015 to get another shot, but my primary doctor advised me not to because I had gained about 15 lbs just from the first shot. So I wasn't taking any type of birth control after the first shot. A year later I still wasn't having a period. (After only one depo shot) They did multiple pregnancy tests that were all negative and decided to start me on lo loestrin fe to try to induce a period. About 2 weeks into taking the pill, I had about 2 days of light breakthrough bleeding,& then it stopped. I took it for about 4 months while still not having a period. My doctor did a PAP exam and everything was normal. I had a UTI so I was put on an antibiotic to treat it. 3 days after starting the antibiotics, I had a period for about 4 days. It was normal, no cramping and not too heavy. I was relieved but I knew antibiotics made birth control ineffective, & that this may have been why I started. I continued to keep taking the lo loestrin and still have not had a period again since that one during the antibiotic. I am starting to get worried, wondering if I will be able to have kids, etc. Any advice would be great. Thanks!
