cycles after going off bcp

since you have been off the pill whats your cycle timeframe been like

this is my 2nd cycle off of it and my first month was 31 days and my 2nd 26 days which isnt to bad at all but my calendar looks a mess w/all the different scenarios every month lol

so i am just curious what yours is like

Re: cycles after going off bcp

My first few cycles were 26 days, 37 days, 32 days--and now for the past few moths its been pretty normal at 27-29 days.

I wasn't on BCP for all that long--maybe only 4 years and my cycles were very normal.

Re: cycles after going off bcp

My first cycle was like 28 days then 2nd cycle it was like 30 and then all hell started to break loose lol!! Every month that passed....my cycles just got longer and longer

Re: cycles after going off bcp

i was on for a long time. been tracking for like a year.... in the beginning they would range from 26 - 32 days, but on average they are now 29 days.

Re: cycles after going off bcp

My first didn't come in 90 days so I was given booster pills to get it.

Second came at day 87.

Third around day 54.

Then in the 80s again.

Then they started to come around day 34, then 59, then 34, then 54, then 63, then 34.

I went off BC in February 2008. We started TTC in January 2010.

My first two cycles in 2010 were 34 days and 34 days.

I conceived on CD43 (I later learned) and got my BFP on CD67.

I'm proof you can still get PG with ridiculously irregular cycles if everything else is ok.

Wishing you the best!!!

Re: cycles after going off bcp

This is only my 2nd month being off the pill. My first cycle was about 37 days.

I was on the pill for about 13 years. I think I was somewhat regular before. But who remembers that far back, lol!

Re: cycles after going off bcp

My first cycle was 37 days, then the following 2 were 30 days, and this last one I cant tell bc I have no idea which day to call CD1. I got what I thought was AF after 30 days but it was really really light, and then 4 days into it I got AF cramps and it got heavier. So I dont know if the first 4 days was just spotting and to count the first day with cramps and heavier flow as CD1, or the first day I had anything whatsoever?

Re: cycles after going off bcp

My cycle has not changed one bit ...same as when I was on the pill...28 days. I have been off for 3 months and my last two periods were 28 days apart...even the time of the day I got my period is the same. Weird...

Re: cycles after going off bcp

Mine were pretty regular - averaged 29 days

Re: cycles after going off bcp

I'm on my 3rd cycle off of the pill and I re-regulated very quickly. My cycles are short...only 23 to 24 days and that's where I'm at now. This is our first month TTC and we'll know for sure how it went later this week. Keeping our fingers crossed!
Good luck to you!
