I had taken loestrin 24 for almost the whole month until my husband and I were convinced I was pregnant. I had been extremely nauseated, my sense of smell changed dramatically, exhausted all the time, not to mention how edgy I was. I truly thought we were going to have another baby. I stopped taking the pill 3 days early just bc I thought I was pregnant. I never started my period, normally if I had skipped a pill I would have started the next day, well, nearly 4 weeks later, I still haven't started. I have had 3 blood pregnancy tests done, all are negative. I have even had an ultrasound done. I know I will NEVER take Loestrin again. but as for my missing period, I have no answers. maybe you can help this "medical mystery?"

That makes me feel better...I thought I was pregnant about a week ago, so I didn't take the remaining 5 pills in my pack before my period should have started. I have every possible symptom of pregnancy that you can think of. Three home tests and one blood test came out negative. But even after not having the pill in my system for over a week, the symptoms are still there. It still feels like I'm pregnant. I don't want to go on it again either, even tho I was ok with it before. It's just too emotional being convinced that you are pregnant and not ever knowing whats going on.
