Third period symptoms and conditions

I'm 36 and I've been on Loestrin24 FE for almost two years. I used to have very heavy and painful periods. And thanks to Loestrin my periods are shorter, and very light. My concern now is that this is the third period I miss. There's no way I could be pregnant and my pregnancy test came out negative. I still feel a little anxious that I'm not having my period, and I would blame that to my current emotional state. I called the doctor's office and they said is normal to miss periods with this pill and have no periods at all. In my case I rather keep taking the pill, having painful periods was much worse. I didn't gain weight, I think is actually helping me keep a healthy weight, my mood swings were worse before, and my skin has improved (I used to have dark spots and they cleared after a few months of use) Loestrin has been a life saver for me. I still wish I get my period though.

Are any of you actually taking this pill AT THE SAME TIME EVERY DAY? I'm just wondering because I'm going on to my 3rd month on Loestrin 24 and I take my pill the same time every day, get my period on time, and have had no problems what so ever...

Hey everyone i have been taking yasmin for almost a year now and during the first month i bled almost everyday. When i went back to my gyno she said this was normal because my body was getting used to the hormones and that it would level out over the first two months. When she told me this it really didnt worry me too much bc i had an irregular period anyways. After the first month everything was fine until my third period when i experienced horrible cramps, mood swings, depression, and breast tenderness, and i dropped about 5 pounds. Yasmin is the only birth control i have ever taken so i'm not sure if i should switch bc i can deal w/ the cramps and breast tenderness but i'm not sure about the depression. I am only 18 and recently i have noticed a couple more side effects like reduced libido and dizziness...i wonder if another type of BC would be better?

I took the reccomended dose of Ultracet (on an empty stomach, unfortunately) at night, and was awake for 2 hours trying to relieve myself of the terrible itchiness. Once I had gotten to sleep I had no trouble, and the pain in my knee, which I had taken Ultracet for, was gone. However, when I awoke the pain had returned three-fold, and so I took another pill...mistake. I could not stay awake on the ride to school, and fell alseep for my entire first period. The nausea ensued about 15 minutes later, and I could not concentrate at all. By third period (around 9:30, 3 hours after taking the pill) I was trembling and could hardly walk; I couldn't have told you my name. I began to cry uncontrollably, and continued to fall asleep. I had to be escorted off-campus and taken home, where I slept for 4 hours. It began to wear off around 3:45 (more than 8 hours after the pill), and now I have horrible nausea. This is the most horrible drug I have ever encountered. Does anyone realize how badly this affects people?
