well i have stoped taking my pill for 3 weeks and ive been fine exepet my pms is back

you haven't had ANY symptoms?? Were you taking it for a long time before though? I had been taking mine for 3 yrs. straight.

I thought I was finally feeling better, bc I had no symptoms for an amazing two days. But last night I had the WORST stomach ache. And now I feel like I'm back to feeling sick and being bloated. :/ It's hopefully only symptoms of coming off the pill. I hope.

i have the same problem!!! i have been to the doctors and had a test there i did 3 before hand all sed negative and so did the one at the doctors but he sed there still cud b a cahnce i am pregnat so i gt to wait another week....i asked him ahy if im nt pregnat am i having these symptons and he sed it could b through worry ..i am 3 weeks late for my period

wow. well i'll look forward to hearing your reply! Keep me posted. So your doc. thinks there's a chance.

I haven't taken a test yet. I'm thinking about waiting it out to see if I get my period. But all my friends keep buggin' me!

ive been taken my pill for a year nearly but is toped cos im sick of forgetting to taske it i am not worried that this is my first time my period has been nearly 2 weeks late just if i am and when i have to tell my mam

Hmmm...

Well, I took a test today and it's negative so I'm not gonna worry. IF i miss my period though (bc my last one was short and light)I'll test again. But thats not until the end of this month.

It's very normal to have side effects from going off the pill. Your body is going back to producing its own hormones again and that can take some time (typically three months). Some women have more symptoms than others, so the fact that some women didn't have any trouble doesn't really reflect anything.

Did you consider trying another pill, another method, or are you done with birth control?

I think I'm done with birth control. I have Epilepsy and it made my seizures worse, and since I stopped? I've been seizure free...

But yea, I'm pretty sure it's just symptoms of my hormones coming back to sanity

i've had those symptoms for over a month now except the breast tenderness and i never missed a pill i was still on the pill when my symptoms started! an it was a week after my period time. it's been a month an half still sick bloated tired spotting an crampin on an off done tests an still say negative idk what could be wrong even went 2 2 dif dr.s all they could find was uti took my meds an still didn't go away i'm waitin till end of month for next period

well I was on the pill when my symptoms started too. Again, it was a new brand of pills (first mo. on them) and it was the week right before the placebo pills when you get your period.

I stopped after the pack was done with because my boyfriend didnt like how it made me have SO many seizures, and either did I. But the symptoms were wierd and I secretly wondered if I had gotten pregnant. And he actually wondered that a few days ago, and so I took a test, and it was negative as I said before. But if I was, i think it's too early to test as its only been two weeks since my period ended. So I'm going to chill and wait for this month to end. I plan on having my period August 1st or 2nd. So we shall see!! If not, I'll def. test again and keep everyone posted.

Similar happened to me... I took 3 days of BC then lost the pack. Had sex during the fertile time (days 12, 14,15, 16, 17). I started spotting a week later - not sure if it is from stopping the BC or if it is implantation bleeding. It's very light, only enough for a panty liner and my periods are usually heavy enough for a tampon. My period is actually supposed to start on the 24th. Took a PG test on Sat which was negative but it could still be way to earlier. I've been having really wierd vivid dreams too which I've heard could be a sign. Anyone have any similar symptoms and ended up pregnant?

lol funny, I've been having really vivid dreams too.

BUT ANYWAYS...When you miss pills, yes, you will have spotting. I've done that before. It happens, and isn't anything to worry about. Unless you were having unprotected sex. BUT...If you took a test and it was negative I wouldn't worry.

I still have to wait longer than you to find out if I am, but I'm keeping up with this page, and I promise to keep everyone posted.

Yes I will keep everyone posted as well... as I can take a test on Friday. The spotting stopped today too... hmmmmm

i am gonna get a little detailed because im not sure. i think the last time my period was the 28th of june. but i didnt have unprotected sex til the 8th of july. so the 21st would be the 2 week mark if i am. i have not thrown up yet,. but i do have my breast hurt now and then. sleep alot more. just over the weekend i had at at taco bell and every bite i felt very horrible sick like i wanted to throw up and that lasted all day then it went away. today i was just sitting around and no food around me but i was like smelling food. like i had wanted it or somethihng, what does that mean.? well today i had this light brown to a hint of pink in it blood or discharge and its clearing up didnt last long and period is not expected til around the 25th or the end of this month.and plus where my uterus is at it feels very tender and it never felt like that when i was starting or ending a period, what does that mean/. dont know if this is helpful or not but i am very confused any tips and help please/.

well it's been a month since i stopped takin the pill i was sopposed to start wed still nothing i've been really tired lately but haven't hard time gettin to sleep an past few days i woke up real early with the worst headache ever an i feel like i haven't eat in a week even though i eat cpl hrs before bed still fell nausiated and cramping but not as bad as before an i quit spotting my breasts are getting a lil sore not much though an mostly just when i take my bra off at night i really notice never happened before i've took cple tests last month should i try again? or could it just be somethin else?

Hi all, i stopped taking my pill in march 2009 as i got married in june and we are now trying for a baby, i wanted to get the pill out of my system after 8 years continuous use. When i stopped the pill i felt really sick and mt nipples were so sore and constantly erect! i was convinced i was pregnant and even did a test but that came back negative and i got my period 33 days after i stopped taking the pill and have had a 33 day cycle ever since. I guess its just your body's way of getting back to normal.

Well, it was all symptoms of coming off the pill. I'm fine. My period was a two days early, but I got it none the less when I expected it. I'm really glad I'm done with being all worried now!
