How long after stopping BC were you normal?
I came off BC last month, so this would be my first cycle without using it. I should have gotten AF on Wednesday, but nothing. How long after stopping BC did you all have regular cycles??
DH and I were going to start TTC next month, but at this rate, I dont see that happenning...

Re: How long after stopping BC were you normal?
I was immediately back to my regular 28-29 day cycle. But many doctors will advise that you wait 3 months after coming off the pill before you start TTC. I would talk to your doctor if you wanted to start trying sonner than that.
Best of luck to you!

Going into the 3rd month and still not "normal." Makes it very difficult (impossible) to predict the O time. The doctor said it could take months just to start ovulating again.

Re: How long after stopping BC were you normal?
This is my first month off too. Every doctor is different in his/her recommedations. Mine said that some people actually have a bounceback in fertility right after going off so she told me that I'm free to start trying right away. The only tough thing is that I don't really know what my cycle will be like, but I'm not going to stress over it the first few months.

It took me 60 days the first month off and 45 the second. It takes a while to regulate/

Re: How long after stopping BC were you normal?
took me about 6 months before i became regular, where i could predict O. i was charting so i always knew when AF was coming.

Re: How long after stopping BC were you normal?
I was curious about this also, and I just came on this site now! it would've been helpful! I went off the pill and just passed my first normal cycle...i was a couple days off the normal when i was on the pill but amazingly enough got my period the next month. My dr. told me to call him if i didn't get it in 3 months...that before that its ok. I think there is medicine you can take to start getting your period but they don't give it to you right away...So as of now i don't know how "normal" I am, but i'm glad my body was producing enough estrogen on its own to get my period

Re: How long after stopping BC were you normal?
I had a normal cycle immediately after coming off BCP. I was on them for 7 years, so I was a little worried!

With my son I stopped my pill and 2 weeks later got pregnant. So i guess it was immediately!!
