To be worried I don’t have a period

I recently came off the POP after a year. I haven’t had a period for 2 months. Is this normal? I had a regular cycle whilst on the pill.

You don't have a period whilst on the pill.,its a withdrawal bleed. it can take a few months for your body to return to having periods

I didn't have one for 18 months after finishing the pill. Turned out I have severe PCOS following scans and tests.
It is really common not to have them for a while, whilst your body is adjusting to no artificial hormones.

Oh wow, I’m sorry to hear that! I guess I’ll just have to wait and see when my period arrives. I’m always worried that I’m pregnant whenever I miss a period Grin

Yes I guess so. Although I bled around the same time every month for the same number of days.
