Last year I went on Ortho-Tri Cyclen Lo and the same thing happened. I called my doctor and was instructed to take one pill every six hours for 24 hours. Let me tell you, It was hell. I was dry heaving and unbearably nausous ALL day from side-effect overload. But, It did shock my system backinto it's regular cycle. Since then I have taken several different varities including Ovcon, Nuvaring, and Yasmin. I recently stopped taking Yasmin (about a month ago)and have not had my period yet. I am about 2 weeks late and have been showing signs of a period for both of those weeks. It's very frustrating and I know how you feel. Good luck with everything, I hope you get better. |
