I was worried a couple of days ago because my period was 3 days late. I have been on the pill for 3 years which regulated my period. Last night i felt soo tired and dizzy with a severe migraine. I had horrible nausea and couldnt sleep. I then started having severe cramps, almost unbearable. I finally got my period during the nite and its extremely heavy with lots of clots. It is different from my other periods. Explaination??

I would go to your gynocologist and check for endometriosis or fibriods just to be sure you are ok. If nothing else, call their office and ask if you should come in.

I have had this experience when i first started taking the pill. It was when I was dating my then boyfriend (who is now my husband of 3 years.) I have researched it and now know that this was actually my first miscarriage. Many people don't want to think of the pill as the equivalent of abortion, but the truth is that it doesn't always prevent pregnancy. The hormones in the pill make your uterine lining very thin, so much so that implantation cannot occur. So, whats left is a fertilized embryo that has nowhere to go but be flushed out. It was so heartbreaking (and the most extreme pain possible) to know that I was lied to and I no longer wanted to stay ignorant. I think you know deep down inside that this probably was a lost pregnancy. I am sorry for your loss and hope you reconsider using the pill as birth control. You might want to consider going to a doctor at least to make sure there is no possibility of infection, or just to have a regular papsmear. They might disagree with the truth about the pill, but I think you know. Good luck.

Also it could be clots that sometimes clog the opening of the cervix. Some people even have to have them removed by their physician. I don't think you need to be extremely concerned, but it is something you should bring up with your doctor. Especially if it occurs on a more regular basis - as signs from endometriosis or fibroids would.

Are you sexually active? OCs are 99+% effective, not 100%. Sounds like potentially a spontaneous abortion.
