My periods were the same. I would go months without getting my period. Which caused me to not find out I was pregnant until 4 months in. Honestly had no other symptoms except smells that didn't bother me before were intensified. 7 years later I was diagnosed with diabetes. My new Dr put me on Actos, without any "warning". My PCP didn't say anything either... But within 2 weeks I was pregnant.(I found out later that Actos is often prescribed for PCOS patients trying to conceive.
