Questions....
Hi Ladies...
Let me start by saying that this is all new to me, so my questions might sound very dumb So here it goes:
I stopped bp January of this year (2013). I've always been very regular, and my period ALWAYS comes on the week of the 20th. After I stopped bp I started getting my period twice a month, for example I would get it on the week of the 10th and again on the week of the 20th. So this has been happening for close to 4 months already. On April I got my period on the week of the 10th but never came on the week of the 20th. So my question is...should I test? Or is their even a chance?
Sorry if it's confusing. I need advise!

Re: Questions....
Are both cycles full flow or is one just spotting? To me it sounds like you were still regulating after coming off BC. Are you saying your cycles are only about 15 days in length? How long were they before you went on BCP?
I would say your body might just be back to normal now because you havent gotten AF since April 10, that would make your cycle this month only 20 days long. Maybe wait a few more days to see if it comes?

Both cycles are full, and each last about 5 days long.

Re: Questions....
You're almost definitely not getting AF twice a month, or at least not a "real" AF. I agree that your body is still trying to regulate itself. Mine took a few months.
It can't hurt to test. If it's negative, I would wait another month or two and see if your cycle becomes more regular.
Also, you can't go by how regular you were while on BCP's.

It's definitely just your body regulating itself back after being on the BCP. BCP does some crazy things to your body, and especially if you've been on it for any long period of time, your body is totally confused by not having its regulator there anymore. I would give it a little more time to get back regular.

I would say if after you hit 28 days (so one more week maybe) and you still haven't gotten, then test...
