Q:
I have been on the pill for about two and a half years now. Basically every month I start on Wednesday on the dot. This month on Friday Saturday and Sunday I had a little bit of spotting which from what I can recall has never happened since I've been on the pill. Then Monday and Tuesday nothing. Now so far today (wed.) I haven't started my period and it usually starts early in the morning and it's after one in the afternoon. Could there be something wrong that I need to get checked out? Or could it just possibly be stress? And maybe I shouldn't worry so soon?
You're help is much appreciated! Thank you!
A:
If you did not miss any pills this cycle, nor took any antibiotics which might have interfered with the absorption of the pills, then this is likely a variant of normal for you, and could be from stress factors. I don't think you need to look at pregnancy testing unless you really don't have any period at all this week.
