last month my period was like really crampy and very little bleeding, like hardly ANY, and now I was supposed to start yesterday, and I have been having that crampy yucky feeling for a few days now.. but NOTHING.. no blood.. (i'm not too concerned yet b'c i'm not that late) and I take BC pills, I've not gained or lost a significant amount of weight or anything or really made any changes.. have any of y'all ever experienced this?

  • Depends on how stressed I am. I've skipped months entirely and the month of my marriage I got it 3 times. Are you particularly stressed at all?

    Have you taken a pregnancy test?
  • I'd take a test to be sure.... i had very little bleeding right before I found out I was prego with my first.

    I have gone without it for almost a year. During that time I went to the doctor three times and everything was fine. It finally came back, and its irregular, but thats just me.

    Hello! I have had this happen to me a couple of different times. I took tests just to be sure, even though I knew they were negative, but it always happens when I'm extremely stressed or I've been taking pain killers. The last time this happened, I had a kidney stone and it screwed up my schedule for 3 months, even though I am on birth control pills as well. It's possible your body is just trying to adjust to something, but I'd take a test to be sure. But I do know many who have just skipped a month, and then the next month got better due to some reason just unknown. If you're very worried about it, I'd call your physician and see what they have to say. :)

    Stress? Have you taken an anitbiotic lately? That sometimes throws me off.
    Have you taken every day of BC pills? If I forget to take one, or take it in the evening instead of the morning it'll throw me off too.
    I'd take a test just to be sure (who wants to wait for days not knowing) and if it's not regular the next month, call the dr.

    have you been eating enough? or too much? how much you eat affects your hormones and hence your period.

    It can happen. They can be erratic at times. If you are worried, go to the doctor.
