Coming off BC Ques...

My DH and I decided to start TTC this spring, however I just stopped taking my BC pills this month to try and regulate my body and figure out my cycles. I have been on BC for about 8 years...how long did it take everyone once they stopped BC for regular cycles to start again? Should I expect my period this month? Any other symptoms I should prepare for?

TIA!!!

Re: Coming off BC Ques...

I've been off for 2 months and have had regular 28 day cycles, but as I have learned from others this doesn't mean I'm ovulating. I've also heard that some people were normal at first and then it went crazy, so not sure. Other symptons: I've been breaking out a lot more.

Re: Coming off BC Ques...

I went off 2 months ago and have not ovulated or had AF.

I had possible PCOS back 10 years ago when I first started the pill so I'm thinking those problems are coming back to haunt me now.

I have an appt with an RE next week, so we'll see......


As for symptoms after coming off the pill, I haven't really noticed anything.... My weight has thankfully stayed the same, I haven't broken out..... DH thinks my boobs grew a little though! Chat Icon Chat Icon

i went off and the first 2 months were 28 days, ovulating pains at 14 days and everything. It was perfect. The next month was 34 days, then 49 days, then 56 days!!

I never had a normal cycle before going on the pill either.

Re: Coming off BC Ques...

I went off and have had 24 days and 30 day cycles so far- very odd- but hopefully I will regulate soon. I am not sure if I ovulated those months since I am only starting temping this month

Re: Coming off BC Ques...

I have been off from 3 months -- My first month off was 28 days, the second was almost 50 days and the third month was 34 days. I'm not temping yet so unsure if I am O'ing. Other than that, my AF has definitely been changing every month (different symptons, cramps, flow, etc) so it is probably slowly trying to find "normal." I DID gain weight without altering anything about my diet or work outChat Icon
