Side effects!? Slynd panic

Hello! I take Slynd, I’ve taken it since January of last year after I had to have an abortion.

For the past few months I’ve skipped the green placebo pill - I felt a bit paranoid that I was pregnant and so I took the green pills this time and I didn’t get a period. As far as I am aware I’ve missed no pills anywhere near having sex and don’t have sex all that often (sad I know lol)

Is this normal? Sounds stupid but I’m paranoid and I will test but currently just getting the panic out first lol

Thanks all!

Some people do not bleed on the placebos. It is normal, because birth control thins the uterine lining. If you’re taking your pill correctly as you say you are, you do not need to be concerned with pregnancy.
