Did this ever happen to anyone? Update*
Ok so I went off the pill in December. I wanted to go off because I have been on the pill since I am 18 and wanted to give my body a chance to regulate before TTC after the summer. The first 4 months I got my period on schedule, now this month I was supposed to get it on Friday and still nothing. I highly doubt I am pregnant because I have been keeping a close eye on my ovulation dates and trying not to do anything around that time. We also try and take othe precautions when we are together. Just wondering if anyone else was regular off the pill and then became irregular.
Thanks
***Update
So I finally got AF Came on CD36 this month. Now I am totally confused as to when I O. I thought I had it all figured out since it came on CD29 for the past 4 months and now I have no clue

I was neve regular before the pill either but that was years ago. After going off I thought wow, this is great I am regular. Thanks for the reply because I was starting to freak out

Re: Did this ever happen to anyone?
This happened to me. I stopped taking BCP in September. I was completely regular after that until February when I just spotted for one day and AF never came! I went to the doc had a bunch of tests and was told everything was normal and to just wait for AF.. but then in March I got my BFP

So when did you actually get pregnant? What should I do, should I see a doctor or should I just wait? I felt a little crampy like I was going to get my period but then that went away and still no signs of AF at all.

Did you take a pregnancy test??
I went to the doctor because we were TTC and I just thought maybe I was preggers.. turns out I wasn't and she told me that sometimes people have regular cycles when they come off of BCP but then months later their schedules get thrown off and their bodies have to adjust. Everyone is different.
I wasn't TTC in March and since I never got AF I was waiting for it. When she was a No show for a second month I took a test and turns out I got preggo in March.

No i didnt take one yet because I didnt think it was possible since we arent TTC and I've been avoiding the dates when I am ovulating. So what do you think I should do, take a pregnancy test and take it from there?

I had 4 cycles of 29 days and now I have no idea when AF is going to arrive. Do I have to see my GYN if this continues?

I am on CD 61...no AF...no BFP and my doctor doesn't want to see me till CD 90ish. However I just got off the pill in January. Since you have gotten AF since being off the pill I would maybe wait till CD 60. Sometimes people skip a month.

thanks....this is crazy...I thought for sure I would keep getting it on day 29. 4 months got it on day 29 since being of the pill. What does the doctor say is the cause of this?

Stress, travel, and several other factors can affect your O, which will push back your AF. I would probably see when AF comes this cycle. If you get to CD50, then I'd call the doc. If AF comes before then, I'd prob see what happens next cycle. If you have another long cycle, I'd make an appointment with the doc. Mine put me on Clomid and Metformin to help regulate my cycle and make it "normal".

Thanks for the info...I am keeping my fingers crossed that AF comes soon. It stinks having an irregular cycle

Re: Did this ever happen to anyone? Update*
i was on the pill for a long time. They 1st three months were like I was still on the pill
Lately my cycles have been 38,36, 35 days
I feel like my cycles are slowly going back to a normal 28-30 day cycle. I am on CD24 so I am wondering if it will be less that last month.
But it seems pretty normal. and everyone is different. but you seem to be experiencing what I am.
