Steph, If you are not pregnant, then your ovaries are likely not fully functional since coming off the pill. It often takes a while for the cycles to completely normalize. The fact that you have two "normal" cycles doesn't really mean anything. I would wait and see what happens. If you still haven't gotten your period in two weeks, repeat the test... Lynn
