A member asked:
If i am taking oral contraceptives why would i skip a period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Might be normal: Sometimes women will miss a period while taking BCP, it's not that unusual, keep taking them as directed. However another reason for a missed period could be pregnancy, so you should check a home pregnancy test to be certain.
