Missed period, 3 negative tests, Wellbutrin

[stickynikki]

Okay. I was supposed to start my period around the 15th/16th of May. About a week ago I had an intense stabbing abdominal pain about around where the small intestine is. (which I've had before). About when my period was supposed to start, I had mild cramps. Now I am discharging and it sometimes feels like I started when I didn't. I've taken 3 pregnancy tests, all negative. I am on Wellbutrin XL, which I hear can cause missed and late periods. What do you think?

I've been on wellbutrin xl for a few months now and i stopped taking it for a month and then i realized i hadn't gotten my period so i figured it was a chemical in balance, i'm taking it now and my period is still late. Is it normal or not?

Started wellbutrin XL 150mg at the beginning of december, it is now basically january and no period. My last period was on Nov. 17th, and on December 18th this month i had one tiny blood spot, and that was it. Pregnancy is highly doubtful, and 3 pregnancy tests say negative. I've had regular periods all my life. This drug needs to be evaluated again to list this side effect of missed periods/irregular periods.

I've been on wellbution for a week and was suppost to start I'm have cramps and soreness like I'm going to but still haven't I was suppost to start a week ago      I've had a tubal also so I don't think preg is a problem. They put me on it for mild depression and lack of energy and also to quit smoking it has some what helped for everything. But I'm kinda glad bout periods cause I was having them every 15 days.  Do u think I should tell my dr.       They also found a knot in my left breast and got to do a biopsy next week to find out what it is so I think I might need to stay on this med.

I have a question for anyone who was very late and was on birth control... (taking welbutrin). I am now 5 days late, and normally i would start a new pack by now. Did you wait to start another pack til you got your period? Or did you keep on your cycle of birth control hoping it would figure out the correct pattern again? I have taken 4 preg tests, all were a clear negative.

i am having the same issue. just started WB about a week ago, and was supposed to start my period this passed saturday (it is now tuesday). i am also on BC and havn't been this late ever (while on BC)... i started to really worry yesterday morning (and took two preg. tests yesterday and one today) all were negative.
i was worried if effected my BC like antibiotics would, but when i called the doc who perscribed it to me, she told me she never heard of this side effect before.
after reading these posts... i think doctors may need to reconsider this.
and i dont think it is stress or anything like that, because i have been majorly stressed and depressed for a while before considering anti depressants, and it never effected my cycle.
i am still concerned, but i did just start it. i may have not adjusted to it yet. but it is very odd issue.
no cramping... no spotting... no nausea... nothing at all.
very weird
