What Causes Irregular Periods Despite Taking Yasmin?

I did not get periods even after finishing yasmin for past 2 months.i am not pregnant. Why is that? Have i become adapted to yasmin.I was on yasmin for past 7 years on and off. My doctor has put me on Metformin now and told me to take Crina ncr 10mg for 5 days whenever i dont get periods.I am afraid what if i dont get periods with Crina ncr too?

Hello ma'm..

There is very less chance that u got adapted to Yasmin.

The most important cause of delayed periods is hormonal imbalance.

There are so many causes for hormonal imbalance, you should find out what exactly is happening with you.

One of the most important cause at your age group is Insulin resistance and that's why your doctor started Metformin for you.

Other causes like thyroid imbalance, polycystic ovarian disorder etc are also very common.

I may suggest you to check your thyroid and sugar profile and get an ultrasound scan of your pelvis done at the earliest.
