Anyone miss 2 periods after taking morning after pill?

BigMumma18 · 21/12/2020 14:42

Hi, my partner and I DTD on 14/11 and I took EllaOne the following day. I completely missed my period at the end of November (usually every 4 weeks to the hour!)

I'm now coming up to when my second missed period would be which is on the 25/12 so Christmas day!

Has anyone had Ellaone mess up your cycle this much? Since taking the MAP I've had no bleeding or spotting whatsoever. I took 2 first response test, both negative.

I woke up yesterday extremely nauseous like when morning sickness began in my last pregnancy and had another wave of nausea last night.

I took another first response this morning after talking with the pharmacist and it's another negative. Does this mean I'm definitely not pregnant? I'm worried as I really wouldn't be able to continue with the pregnancy if it was. Please has anyone had period delayed by nearly 2 months or longer?

Thanks in advance!

@Bex19999 oh did you, that's something I guess, my last test was over a week ago so I'm going to wait 2 more days then test again, this is mad! I really want to come on, have my implant and never have to worry again!

@BigMumma18 I would assume both of test would show an evap after the same amount of time or does it just depend ? I need to get my hands on a FRER asap !. My boobs have defo started hurting again but thats also a sign of early pregnancy so I dunno 😩. I’m bloody checking like mad every time I go to the toilet for a period !

Bex19999 · 30/12/2020 12:07

@BigMumma18 frer completely negative not even a hint of a line! So now where the hell is my period ?!

@Bex19999 Me too, keep thinking I've come on and then nothing when I check, although I've got a headache now and a little cramping so got a feeling my AF will arrive tommorow, my partner is convinced it's on it's way too from the way I've been with him!

@BigMumma18 yep same.. boobs are really hurting now though which means it won’t be in the next few days more like next week. Hopefully yours comes tmrow ! Think I am CD 60 or 59 now

BigMumma18 · 30/12/2020 22:34

@Bex19999 aww hope it's not too long for you though, a week seems like forever at the moment! Thank you, makes you wonder how many people go through this.

@BigMumma18 i did have a period in November so I think I have just completely skipped Decembers and won’t come on till January. I’m never taking this bloody pill again ! Nothing at all for me today

BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 10:27

Ok... So.... I'm now CD 63 and it's been 47 days since taking the MAP! It looks like AF has finally started, it's very pinky which is unusual but may be just because I'm checking more than usual and noticed before it comes full on! I had strong cramps last night so thought it was coming... will keep you updated.

@Bex19999 how are you today? X

BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 10:29

@Bex19999 when did you take the MAP again? I know how you feel, it's a never again for me too!

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 31/12/2020 10:43

@BigMumma18 ahh that is good bet you are relived! I wish mine would hurry up and come 😞. I just checked and I am CD 60. Can’t feel it coming any time soon. I took the MAP on the 25th October and then had a bleed on 7th November but defo wasn’t as heavy as my normal period x

BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 11:03

@Bex19999 it looks like I completely missed 2 periods then AF a week later! Well that's what I'm hoping it is, I'm still only spotting at the moment so will be more relieved when it comes full on. Never thought I'd say that 🤣 if you had a light bleed in November, I wouldn't worry too much as think that's quite normal from what I've read so far...

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 31/12/2020 11:12

@BigMumma18 mine is always really light and pink to start with so it’s probably just that. I’m actually jealous you got your period haha!. It doesn’t help i have health anxiety so I’ve been on google nearly every day for the last two weeks!. I’m not even worrying about being pregnant now I’m worrying it’s something worse. Sounds crazy but at least it I had a postive test I’d have an explanation for this

BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 11:28

So you took the MAP a few weeks before me! I thought yours was after, I see why you're worrying just trying to compare dates with me etc

OP posts:
BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 11:30

I took the MAP on 15th Nov, last period was 30th Oct

OP posts:
BigMumma18 · 31/12/2020 11:33

@Bex19999 also the stress is probably what's delaying yours, try to not worry so much, that's what I did x

OP posts:
BigMumma18 · 01/01/2021 18:50

I still haven't got my typical period yet, it's been really light the last couple of days when usually medium to heavy! Not quite sure why, I've never ever had a period this light.... perhaps it will come properly over the next few days...

@Bex19999 how are you today?

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 01/01/2021 19:13

@BigMumma18 hmmm really ? Would have thought no period after two months it would
Be heavy. Periods after taking the pill can be lighter but Just seems so strange that the pill taken so long ago can be having an effect still. I still have nothing and no signs even my
Boobs aren’t hurting anymore just so weird. I have another frer that I will take when it’s been two weeks after the last sex so I’ll take it Sunday although I don’t think I am pregnant

BigMumma18 · 01/01/2021 20:08

@Bex19999 yes that's exactly what I was thinking! I still can't believe one pill has caused us both all this stress.... I will take another test before my implant on Tues too, really hope you get your period soon x

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 02/01/2021 10:15

@BigMumma18 how are you today ? Has it got any heavier? Still nothing for me honestly getting really worried now as no signs either.

BigMumma18 · 02/01/2021 11:39

@Bex19999 it is heavy today and heavier than normal which I'm relieved about... It's more than likely probably the stress that's delaying yours, stop worrying and I'm sure it will come.... keep me updated, really hope it comes soon for you x

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 02/01/2021 11:41

@BigMumma18 oh that’s good news! I just checked my app and as I have long cycles anyway ( not this bloody long though) my next period isn’t due till 15th jan.. so I’ve only missed Decembers. Maybe it will come when it was supposed to this month and I’ve just completely missed Decembers

BigMumma18 · 02/01/2021 11:46

Yes, that's what my app showed! I missed 2 but I logged taking the MAP and after missing my second it moved predicted start day a week forward.... if your app is saying the same then relax! I'm sure you will get it then 🙂

OP posts:
Bex19999 · 05/01/2021 12:28

@BigMumma18 hey really hoped I’d be writing on here to say I’d come on but nope !! Nothing ! I’m hoping it’s gna be on the 15th like the app said and I’ve just missed one cycle. Trying not to think about it but bloody worrying x

BigMumma18 · 05/01/2021 12:41

@Bex19999 Aww I think you will come on on the 15th or maybe even a week after like I did. I thought my period had stopped but I'm starting to spot again today, it was really heavy for 48 hours so be prepared!... I cancelled my implant appointment as I'm trying to lose weight and my partner and I decided it's best to wait until my weight is under control although he prefers me bigger! Even if it means we don't have sex for a while, hope you come on soon 🤞

@BigMumma18 I just spoke to the doctor who told me we need to rule out pregnancy and that I should go to the pharmacist and book a pregnancy test ?? I’ve never even heard of that ?? She said some of them do it and they might be different ones. I’m not doing that I’ve taken about 10 pregnancy tests all of which have been negative and feel like that’s just a total waste of time. Have you ever heard of that ? She also said she is going to request a scan to see what is going on. But I assume that isn’t gna come for weeks. The implant never effected my weight at all but I guess it does effect people in different ways. I’m also trying to lose weight so probably wouldn’t go on any contraception either
