AF and the mini-pill

So I stopped BF'ing about a month ago but I am still taking my mini-pill because I am too lazy to make an appointment with the doc to get a prescription for the regular pill.  Anyway, I still haven't gotten my period and I am a little bit freaked out because, despite the reminder I have put on blackberry every day, I haven't been taking my pill at the same time every day.  Anyone else in the same situation or should I POAS (Yikes!!!!)?

Re: AF and the mini-pill

  • It couldn't hurt to take one but I bet you're fine.

    I EBF still and am on the MiniPill and no AF yet. It may take you longer to start. I think I read 50% of women on the MP still don't get AF?

    I was wondering this but couldn't find anything on google.  Thanks!

  • I am in the exact situation as you. Everyday I wonder if I'm going to get AF.  It is fine to stay on the MP and not switch back. Some people only ever take progesterone.  I have to call my doctor too though.

  • I had my period twice before going on the mini pill and it immediately stopped and I haven't had it yet. I did just switch to Nuva Ring last week now that I'm not BFing anymore so who knows when it'll come back!
