after bc

[Little_D]

I was wondering what it was like for others to stop BC. How long until you became regular? What where your symptoms/ reactions of coming off them?

Birth control made my periods regular. After two- three months stopping the pill it did get better. After getting of birth control pills I noticed my skin was more oily for a while, I had some more emotional moments, I lost 5 lbs, but, after two to three months my hormones settled down. FYI however, you can get pregnant after getting off birth control within the first month its possible.

I was having a really hard time with side effects for the last few months I was on BCP, which was the primary reason I got off of them honestly. My issues all immediately went away, and my cycle stayed normal at 28 days until I got pregnant five months later. We actually used condoms for the first two months, and didn't decide to start TTC until the third month. That said, I know it can take some people up to a year before they are regular again, so I think everyone has different experiences.

I was never on BCP till after I had my daughter. Before I was on BCP I was every 28 days. Every month. Then I had my daughter and was talked into taking BCP by my doctor. I was on orthrotriclye for 3 months didnt like it (didnt spell that right.) Then I was on yaz for 2.5 years. Then I went to lo loiestrum(spelled that wrong) and got off that after 3 months on that.

Took my last pill 15 and had a period. My next period was Jan 18th (34 days later). I am now 49 days since my last period. 6 pregnancy test later still negative. Last time I took one was friday and that was negative. What should I do?

I would contact my doctor to see if they have some more clear answers. Have you been stressed? Lost weight? Those can also delay your period.
