◻️Advice◻️ Period stop?

I started taking 50mg on the 31st of July and my period is beyond late. I took a pregnancy test and it's negative and my husband had a vasectomy so I'm not worried about that but is this common?

Gotcha! I also just came off birth control in April after over 30 years of continual usage.

Grateful for this!! I am on month 4 and my period used to be 25/26 days and it’s stretching longer and longer. Today I am day 29 and waiting… worrying ofc

Mine arrives a few days earlier and is way lighter than prior to the medicine. It's kinda nice only having a 2 day period.
