I have been on the pill for 11 years now. Some new medications that I began about 3 months ago say they can interfere with oral contraceptives. I have always been extremely regular, however, for the last 2 months I have not had a period. 4 at home urine pregnancy tests have been negative. Any thoughts?

 

Optional Information:
Female , Age: 34

Already Tried:
home urine tests-all negative

The new medications that you have started taking could also be causing a hormonal imbalance within your system which is causing the changes in your cycle. If four home pregnancy tests have come back negative then it would be best to have a blood test performed to make sure that you are not indeed pregnant and if not then they can prescribe medication to help start your cycle back up so it can get back to normal. It may be that the medications may have to be changed if they cause continued issues with your cycle and hormones so this is something to consider talking with your physician about as well.
