So I had Essure(non surgical alternative to having tubes tied) done July 2011 and confirmed October 2011. The Depo shot they gave me in between procedure and confirmation became ineffective December 3, 2011. While on Depo I did not have periods and did not resume periods until March 2, 2012. Had a period from March 2-7 and another from March 18-22. Then I had one from April 18-23 so I was expecting my next one around May 18 and so far nothing. May 23 I got a BFN and called my OBGYN. They said to wait until June 4 and if I haven't started to come in to be evaluated. My question is what can make me miss my period if I'm not pregnant? I'm not overly stressed or on hormones or having any other symptoms. TIA!

 My periods have  been way crazy since surgery.. my bf got the snip 2 months ago but before that I would stress everytime it was late that I was pregnant, it was so stressful it was driving me nuts!! I'm so glad I don't have to worry about that anymore.. BUT I'm still all messed up.. lately I spot to light bleed for 4-5 days then it's gone for about a week.. then I start heavy bleeding for another 4 or 5 days; it's like I get it twice! it sucks!!

I expect to see differences once I have surgery but I'm still pre-op. Thanks for your response :)

 oh you're still pre op.. well being obese can be a major reason for missing your period.  I never had a problem pre op with my period and was very regular but it's a common problem for some.. and I have heard that losing weight helps so hopefully that is the case for you!

 I think it's normal to have weird periods after coming off birth control and before/after surgery. Also I'm not sure when your surgery is/was but I've definitely had a weird period schedule since pre-op. Hadn't had my period in probably a year and then got it a few days before RNY. Then had it 1 month later. Then nothing for 2 months, then again a month later, etc. I'm averaging a period now about every 45 days. Got it May 2, but I was expecting it. Then got it may 15 for 3 days right the day before BR & TT. Then for some reason just got it again Mat 25 & I still have it!
