period disappeared
My menstrual cycle started on 12 march 07 and normally it would be heavy/moderate for 3 and a half days and then dwindles down to spotting for the next 3 days. BUT by the afternoon of the 13th it stopped completely, not even spotting, when at that point it should have still been very heavy. I could just ignore this, but I have a strange bloated feeling in my pelvic and abdominal area and when I removed the last tampon I used on the 13th I felt an instant cramp in the pelvic area - almost like a bad period cramp. I'm worried about this and would really appreciate some feedback as I am uunable to see a gynae in the town I live without having to wait 2+ months for an appointment. I am using minulette birth control pills.
You don't say how long you have been using Minulette, but this can make periods much lighter can can also cause boating.
