: By Drugs.com, you should stop this OC pill if you miss 2 menstrual periods in a row. You should discuss with your doctor or change to a different formula.

This is not proof of a health condition. Are there sugar pills in your birth control pack? If you are taking active pills for the entire month, then you will not have a period.
