Late period with Full Potential?

Is it common to have a late period while taking FP? My period is now about 6 days late and there really aren't any signs that it's coming. I'm kind of disappointed because one of the main reasons I decided to go with FP over St herb to start out with was because I didn't want my periods getting messed up. If it just prolongs my cycle a little I don't really mind but I'm not sure what to do if more time passes and it still doesn't come? Do I need to take a break from the pills until it starts or just keep taking them? I read about Shell's blood clot experience and that's pretty scary stuff!
I think I'm experiencing other negative side-effects that I'm pretty sure are due to the added herbs in FP (Fenugreek, Wild Yam, etc). I'm going to give the FP another month and if those side-effects get worse I'll probably have to stop, take a break, and then start up with St herb next time.

hi shortcake in my opinion 6 days is not that late when on pm your body has to adjust to it even after my blood clot when i changed to st herb my period was never on time,always a week to ten days late but caused me no problem i would suggest to you wait a few more days but if period hasnt come by 14 days late stop the pills and wait for it to come then restart hope this helps

I agree absolutely, 6 days is not that late a period when on PM.
