Missed/late period on microgynon

Has anyone had a late or missed period when on their 7 day break on microgynon? Am coming to the end of my break due to start new pack tonight and no period has appeared! I've taken 2 packs back to back but done this before and have had a withdrawal bleed as normal but not this time!

yes it happened to me ....however I also conceived whilst on microgynon.....it's only 1/1000 chance so guess I'm just lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It wouldn't be awful if I was, we have a 6 month old ds and dp would love another one but I have to go back to work for 3 months min to qualify for my next lot of maternity and we've just moved so lots of outgoings but we'll survive if I am lol did a test yday and it was negative but I've been so busy and tired with little one that I have missed 1 or 2 pills recently will give it a week and test again if nothing. Tmi...have had a jelly like discharge with a slight tinge of blood but that's it no period symptoms which I usually get and no preg symptoms either but it could be too early oh heck!

dd1 is a microgynon baby!

I'm 100% sure I didn't miss a single pill.

ds was a depo provera baby so It could just be my super fertility Grin

good luck op, hope you get the result you want.

I had the same thing.... BFN, then missed the next one, another BFN followed by a BFP and scan showing a 10 week fetus [hmmm] give it a few days!! I never missed a pill either...

I miscarried twice on Microgynon, did not realise I was even pregnant. Horrible plus it made sex really dry. I have since swopped to another pill but still think about those pregnancies I lost even though they were not planned. I have not had a boyf for over 8 months now so can't see if new pill is more effective but have heard from friends that I am not alone.

DS is a microgynon baby. & I got negative tests with him for ages. Just sayin' Grin

I've missed periods on microgynon without being pregnant. But am now secretly hoping for one of those microgynon babies...
