Menstrual Problems.?

Question:

i recently went off the birth control pill about three months ago. i had a period back in february, but i am really late for march. is my body still adjusting after going off the pill or could it be something else?

Answers:
i would think it would take a while to get back to normal. If you are having protected sex or are practicing abstinance, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just give your body time to adjust.

Other Answers:
It really couldn't hurt to take a pregnancy test. I think they're like $10-$20 at the grocery store or pharmacy - that's not too high a price for piece of mind. It COULD still be your body adjusting, especially if you live with other women. My cycle went nuts when I went to college because I shared a room with another girl - hormones or pheromones or something like that can through you off (eventually we wound up kinda in sync, which was bad, but that's a whole other story). Anyway, try a pregnancy test. They're easy, they're accurate, they're inexpensive, and it'll help you to know what your next step should be. You're probably fine, but I'm betting dollars to donuts it'll make you feel better. Good luck!

It can take about 3to 6 months to get it out of your system

well if u hadnt had sexual intercourse then you have nothing 2 worry about its absolutely normal but if u had hav sex then you should go get a pregnacy test just in case

Your body maybe ajusting but in some cases it may not be taking to the pill as it should if you have recently had sex you may need to go see a doctor and get a pregnancy test but it may just take a while to work cause everyone's body is different.

This is due to contaceptive pills. wait till next month and if necessary then consult the doctor.
