Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
So my dr has told me she thinks i have endo based on my pain and cysts, but i don't have any actual proof:/
I have been taking Lo Loestrin Fe for 4 months now, before that i was taking norethindrone for about 6 months. Every month on the Lo Loestrin Fe i have had a very regular period that i can always predict with in a day or two. My whole life since age 11 i have had a period every month very regularly. Now i am 8 days past my period and im freaking out. I have taken 3 tests. two at 4 days past my period, and 1 at 6 days past my period. I take my birth control on time, and have never missed a pill in 4 months. Could i be pregnant??? I know this BC can cause you to not have a period, but for 3 months i have a regular period, and they were actually heavier and more cramps. Now nothing. I have been feeling slightly nauseous and tired, but that could be me stressing out. I also have my usual pain in my stomach.
Ive read a lot of stories of women on Lo Loestrin Fe getting pregnant, and that scares me.
Please help, any responses are greatly appreciated:)

Could you be pregnant? Possibly. I still ovulated on it and don't think it would be a great birth control. HOWEVER, I think there is still a very good chance that the pill is to blame for your missing period. Keep testing, but perhaps you should call your dr and ask for a different bc pill!
