Hi problmatic,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

No menstrual cycle is listed as a common side effect for progesterone only birth control pills.  See below:

• Irregular menstrual cycle
• Spotting or bleeding between menstrual periods.
• Sore breasts.
• Headache.
• Nausea.
• Dizziness.
• Bloating or weight gain, especially with the birth control shot.
• No menstrual periods. Although mini-pill use can stop periods, the shot is most likely to do so.

Another thing to consider is that you've only been taking it for 2 months and it can take up to 4 months to have your body adjust.

I hope this helps.

Be well,

~Gillette
