A member asked:

Since lo loestrin fe can make you not have any periods, and some people call it "lucky" what if you want your period to come to make sure your "working" fine....is there any ways to induce a period (force it to come)?

Dr. Timothy Brown answered

Yes: But you may need to switch to a higher dose pill. Periods are artificial on the birth control pill and tell you nothing about how well you are "working". Many women find no periods on the pill stressful but it is not abnormal and there is absolutely nothing wrong with you.
