lack of period

I am 33 and have been on Ortho-Novum 777 for 15 years. In March/April, I began a new pack of pills right away to prevent having my monthly cycle during some athletic training I was going through. After one week of the second pack, I decided I didn't need to skip a period and abruptly stopped taking them. I thought I would simply have my period right away. I did not. Now it is May 17, and my last period began on March 9th. I have not started my pills back because I was waiting for a period and then start on a Sunday.

In this period of time, I had sex one time, on May 1st. At the time I had sex, I was already 7 weeks without a period. I have taken several home pregnancy tests, and they are all negative.

Could stopping the pill cause me to not have a period for so long? I am worried about my body.

Thank you so much for your help!
