ok here is my situation:
I have been on the pill for about 2 years, however when I went home for christmas I forgot to take it with me. I was 13 days into the pack before I stopped, then 2 days after I stopped taking it my period started. I came on on the 24th dec and it was just a regular period i.e. not particularly light or heavy. Because I've been on the pill for a few years I'm not sure what my natural cycle is, however if I was still on a 28-day cycle then I am currently 6 days late. I last had s_x (with a condom) on the 12th Jan, and about a week later I had that feeling that I was about to start my period, but I didnt. For about the last 4 days I have had sore nipples, and have been urinating a lot (although I'm not sure if I would say an excessive amount). I also keep getting period pains but so far there has been no bleeding. I took a home test yesterday morning and it was negative. I basically want to know if anyone knows how stopping the pill mid-pack will affect my period? I was planning on waiting another week or so and if I still don't come on then Ill take another test...(like I said we used a condom and we didn't notice anything wrong with it, but I guess it's never going to be 100% effective anyway)

Hi anon,
I am in a very similar situation. I am 8 days late now a__suming that I was due to start with my normal 28 day cycle. I stopped the pill on day 6 of the active pills this last month because it was making me sick. I have been experience period like cramps and tender nipples for about 2 weeks now, and I've also been really tired and emotional. I tested once around the time my period was expected, and I also just tested again today. Both were negative. I'm feeling anxious though because I am never late (I was only on the pill for one month before this cycle that I stopped early).
Anyway.....you aren't alone and your post was so similar to my situation I just wanted to ask you to keep me updated on what you find out! Good luck to you!

Hi, just to let you know, I finally came on yesterday, which is close to when I was due to come on as if I was still on the pill (I'm not sure if that is just coincidence or not). Hope everything works out for you!
