I recommend that you have an appointment with a gynecologist today. The prolonged periods can become a side effect of emergency contraceptive pills, however, you should exclude any underlying medical conditions.

My period is more than 15 days...

Female | 16

4 weeks or more is unusual and should be considered a medical alarm. It is necessary to visit a gynecologist to assess the exact cause of the problem and also for the treatment. One should visit a doctor immediately to avoid furthering the problem.

I'm 19 female who using olanzapine and mirtazapine since 27, my period should've come in 28. I'm not pregnant, I might have hypoprolactinemia, my results gonna come in Monday. My period is delayed by 19 days right know. 2 year ago my period was off cycle without any reasons (maybe weather change, it was in May) and I used birth control pills and my cycle was turned to normal. Is there a chance that mirtazapine cause my period delay or is it because of seasonal change agaşn? (I do not have any health problems, cycst etc.)

Mirtazapine may disturb your cycle and cause your periods to be late. Seasonal changes can also be a factor. Stress and some drugs are also responsible for your period being unchanged. After you get the test results on Monday, you will be able to understand better. Meanwhile, try to calm down, drink enough water, and get enough sleep.
