So I got off birth control atleast 3 months ago and have only had my period once since then and it was like right after I got off of it so it was probably because I had all those crazy hormone altering drugs in my body still. Does anyone know why I'm not getting my period and what I can do about it?
I've been doing this yoga routine that is supposedly for endocrine help but it hasn't helped yet. Some days I feel bloated and crampy the way I used to before getting my period, but it never comes!
Help!
And I guess I should mention there is no way I'm pregnant. I was just on birth control for acne.
My doctor told me that after you quit birth control it may take upto a year for you to get a period or to be on a regular schedule again.
Okay thank you. That makes me less worried.
You should really talk to your doctor about this. I'm sure you wouldn't be the only patient who has had this issue. Besides, you never know if it could be something else... Do you normally react abnormally to medications? When I went off birth control, I didn't have a problem, but I do know a few people that did. Your body could definitely be adjusting, but I'd definitely ask the doctor. Good luck!
