    Have you lost weight recently? If so it could be that as i didnt have any for three months due to me losing a lot of weight. I would go to your gp if i was you.

    Seemingly no-one bothers to tell women, but when you stop taking hormonal contraceptives, it can take some time for the normal menstrual cycle to kick back in. Some women get it straight away, others (very few) are delayed by a year or more.

    3 months is almost considered "normal" and anything up to 6 months is considered common, however it is recommended to go see you doctor if menstruation hasn't restarted after 3 months.

    So there's probably nothing to worry about, but go to your doctor. This week at the latest.

    How do you know for sure you're not pregnant?
