Stopped pill, no period yet.
I've stopped taking the mini pill three weeks ago I was on it for 4 years. Im just wondering if I should have had a period after stopping it. I always had regular periods on and off the pill. I was due my period one week after stopping the pill. Maybe it will take a few months for my cycle to go back to normal??

Re: Going Off Birth Control
If you had irregular periods before BC you may still have irregular periods after. The break-outs sometimes get worse after going off BC too. Bite the bullet and take a pregnancy test. If its positive, you have more time to figure out what you will do. If its negative, you can take a deep breath and quit having unprotected sex. If you and your boyfriend are still going to be sexually active, you need to protect yourself.

Re: Going Off Birth Control
the effects of coming off the pill all depend on the individual and how their body copes with it. i know heaps of people that had regular periods after and no breakouts. i also know 2 people that fell pregnant 2 months after coming off the pill (which was a planned pregnancy). so dont freak out too much because you wont know untill you do it
