➡️Starting or Stopping Birth Control Pills.
Starting or stopping pregnancy control pills can cause missed periods due to the hormonal changes that occur when you introduce or remove synthetic hormones from your body. When you start taking birth control pills, it can take some time for your body to adjust to the new hormone levels, which can cause irregularities in the menstrual cycle, including missed periods.
Similarly, when you stop taking birth control pills, it can take some time for your body to readjust to its natural hormone levels. This can cause irregularities in the menstrual cycle, including missed periods
➡️Incorrect Use of Birth Control Pills.
Birth control pills work by regulating hormones and preventing ovulation, which stops the menstrual cycle from occurring. However, if you don’t take your pregnancy control pills as directed, it can disrupt the hormone balance and potentially cause you to miss a period. For example, if you forget to take a pill or take it at the wrong time, it can reduce the effectiveness of the medication and increase the likelihood of ovulation.
➡️Hormonal Imbalance.
For example, if there is an excess of oestrogen or insufficient levels of progesterone, the endometrial lining may not develop properly, and ovulation may not occur, leading to a missed period. Conversely, if there is insufficient oestrogen or excess progesterone, the endometrial lining may become overgrown, leading to heavy or prolonged periods.
➡️Stress.
Stress can cause missed periods even when you’re on pregnancy control pills because it disrupts the delicate balance of hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle. While birth control pills work to prevent ovulation, they do not completely eliminate the hormonal fluctuations that occur during a normal menstrual cycle.
➡️A Sudden Change in Diet.
A sudden change in diet can cause a missed period while on birth control because it can lead to changes in body weight and hormone levels. When you make significant changes to your diet, it can cause a rapid change in body weight, which can affect the balance of hormones in the body.
