ok so ive been on pm for 1 1/2 months.. usually my period comes every 27 days like clockwork..last month i got my period one day early september 8th(26 days) and it was VERY HEAVY..so anyways last weekend i had cramping and thought i would get my period soon that was on october 1st and 2nd but i know my period was due on the 5th and just assumed it was pms. Monday october 3rd i woke up to sore breasts..im thinkin..PERIOD..or perhaps some growth
ive been kinda cranky and bloated (a little more than pms) and kinda have been having to pee alot..maybe too much pepsi??? well the 5th has came and went and now its october 7th and still no period!! i get mild cramping and bloating but absolutly no blood..sorry tmi..
so my questions are..does pm stall periods? if so i wonder why last month i was early at only 26 days into my cycle and now im on day 30 with nothing
..has anyone expeirenced this?? PLEASE SAY YES!! My biggest fear would be thats its YOU KNOW WHAT..oh dear..o btw i thought pm acted like a bc..answers would be really appreciated!!

The worst thing you can do is stress that you're pregnant. You can cause yourself to have what's called a false pregnancy. I've had one before, you end up with the same symptoms as if you're pregnant, but you're not. You will skip your period and all. I've read that some women can go through it for a full 9 months, go into labor and NOTHING. I had a female dog that had a false pregnancy, she no longer had her heat cycle, no longer had her period, we thought she was pregnant. Didn't have the money to do ultrasounds or anything, she got bigger and bigger, her nips came out and all, and she went into labor! But had no babies in her belly. So yea, calm down and don't assume anything until you know for sure with a blood test, don't go by the urine tests. If you miss your period for too much longer go to a dr and get tested.

Hi Prettymama,
PM delays periods. Susan got two cycles of 36 days after starting PM. Other people reported 36 days too. The 8 days at the end of the period are really difficult: Susan worried a lot too, and actually got some false pregnancy symptoms, from the PM alone.
PM will not work as bc. You need strong progestins for that. The traditional herb in Europe was mandrake root.
GorgeousBlonde got her period on time, by completely stopping PM mid cycle.

I think you will get yours at 36 days too, yes. Susan had nausea, and I think she felt cramps too. I do hope you don't have the awful time she had. She even started eating pickles...
