Skipped All 4 Brown Pills Still No Period

Updated

I have been taking minastrin foe 6 months now. I always have a normal period while on the brown pills. This month I haven't had anything. I was intimate on the last day of what would of been a brown, I don't take brown since I was told that are inactive. I am on day 3 of white pills on a new pack and still no period. Could I be pregnant?

The brown tablets contain a small amount of iron, but yes, you are correct, otherwise they are just placebo tablets. Some women tend to bleed heavily and risk becoming anemic, taking them can help prevent that, though the NIH warns that they do not contain enough iron to treat existing anemia.

And it can be normal to skip your period, sometimes, while taking oral contraceptives, according to the FDA. Some women have even stopped menstruating entirely, while taking them. It is generally nothing to worry about, unless your doctor feels there is reason for concern.

There shouldn't be a risk of pregnancy, as long as you didn't miss taking any of the active tablets. But if you are concerned, there is never any harm in checking.

Has there been any change, yet?

No there is still no change. Since I haven't spotted or anything. I stopped taking the active pills as well. This is day 5 of no polls and still nothing.
