Symptoms of stopping birth control pills? (Page 10)

First time user eeek...
i stopped taking BCP after being on it for over 10 years on the last day was of my last period i experienced cramping a couple of days after, then got a light period (normally light anyway) that lasted three days. i have had trouble sleeping and have been waking up sweating and have sum spun out dreams. I have had unprotected sex and now have jus started my period again 29 days after. The cramping hasnt gone away n i feel bloated, tired and get headaches often (i never used to get headaches. I have been pregnant before bu wasnt meant to be ;-(
Any suggestions??

I have stopped taking the pill 3 days ago and I have cramps, headackes, I'm very senstive. I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative.
I think is the side effect of the pill still in me... how long does it take them to go away?

I was on birth control for 6 weeks stopped mid pack...a week later i have had pregnancy symptoms but too early to test...if this was my first time on birth control n was only on it for less than 2 months should i have these symptoms ??? I also had withdrawal bleeding for 3 days the day i stopped taking the pills and i was on Seasonique(4 periods a year) so i dont know when my next cycle will be

I have stopped taking birth control a month and a half ago, i have felt good physically up until over a week ago. One day i just started getting really bad anxiety and panic attacks. i cant help but feel sad and lonely all the time. Any little thing scares me and sets off my anxiety. I'm constantly tired and always sleeping when i can. I dont feel like doing anything or going anywhere. i feel very irritable. i know its from stopping the pill, but i wish it would already pass. i was wondering if St.Johns Wort Vitamins help and how long they take to start working? and also can i buy them in a store or do i have to see my dr about them???

Okay so I stopped taking birth control Sprintec in Feb. I had bleeding for about three days. I started my period in March, it lasted for about seven days. I am now four days late for my period this month. I know when I was not on birth control I would have irregular periods. I do not have any pregnancy symptoms. I just have cramping. Am I just really paranoid or could I be pregnant. I have only had sex like twice since being off birth control.

i came off the pill mid-last month (march) and experienced odd withdrawal bleeding. b4 and after stopping the pill I've had unprotected sex. I've experienced a mild cramp earlier this week(not sure if it was ovulation cramping) and the tiniest amount of blood. <i did have sex b4 that day and on that day. the last two weeks I've had headaches and nausea but this week i feel bloated and need to pee more. not even sure when my period is due. it was regular b4 starting the pill nearly 6yrs ago. :s guess i'll have to wait 2weeks and test.. wish me luck

hey guys, I came off the pill 3 months and had no side effects or change in my body....until recently! for the last few weeks my boobs have suddenly become so much more fuller and this last week they have become sore too. I have also had lower back ache quite alot, headaches and a bloated stomach. My last period was on 8th May so I am due on again tomorrow....do you think this could just be a late side effect of coming off the pill!!? took a cheapy pregancy test last weekend and it was negative....just don't know why my boobs have changed so much if i stopped the pill over 3 months ago!!? or could I still be pregnant with a negative cheapy test!!? you're help and advice would be much appreciated. Thank you xx

I stopped the ortho evra patch after taking it only 2 weeks , a couple days later I spotted for about 3 days which i assume was withdrawal bleeding returning then had unprotected sex as soon as it ended on May 18th and I'm positive he came in me .. about 4 days later I begin to spot, just 2 tiny dots of red discharge which turned to light bleeding then scanty and lasted for 8 days! But on the 8th day it was lots of clear and red discharge with nothing else. Well now it's time for my next period and I'm experiencing lots of cramps but no other signs of a period and today is June 16 all I have is scanty brown discharge every other few hrs which is now thick yellow/white/clear discharge that gushed out today with a little bit of red mixed in it which came after a load of mild cramps and NOW still NO BLOOD and no more discharge as of now NONE and I really feel pregnant. Basically its withdrawal bleeding , unprotected sex , 4 days later period or more withdrawal bleeding then next month no period just discharge a few times and 2 week late so far! My lower abdomen is much firmer esp after I eat one small thing, it's gets extremely bloated and firm at the bottom and right above my pubic bone I can no longer poke in with my fingers, it's too firm and my breast ache especially thru the night. But since I had I period after stopping, shouldn't i definitely have had a period by now? I doubt they are irregular. And last night I ate a small meal, about 3 hours later, I felt a cramp in my stomach and immediately vomitted nothing but the meal I had recently ate and felt a slight headache and then perfectly fine after it! Usually when I am sick from food, diarrhea all night is accompanied by it but there wasn't. Sorry if tmi but I have all these symptoms and still NO PERIOD. help

new to the forum...
Can I chime in...I missed A LOT of pills early this cycle (on camrese) and have sex nearly every day. i didn't think much of it, then i felt the sharp, needle point pain that I used to feel when I ovulated. I'm pretty sure I o'd this month, had sex most days before and the day of.

I googled bcp and ovulation and decided that if sperm met egg and i continued taking the pill, i could kill the little thing living in there by not letting it land. so, no bcp for the tww. i'm now at 8 dpo (if it was o) and can't decide if it's bcp withdrawel or pregnancy. at 6 dpo started getting really emotional, lost my ability to taste spicy food for 3 days now, sensitive to caffiene, my nips are bright red instead of pink and my normal pancake boobs are feeling fuller since 7 dpo. and MOODY. i am going to test 11, 13, and 15 dpo (suspected). I've also been warmer than normal for the last two days as confirmed by a thermometer...98.8 all day yesterday, 98.0bbt this morning, but with no reference.

once i find out for sure, returning to the pill. fearing and hoping that i'm preggo, such conflict within and dying waiting for the two weeks to pass. i go day to day minute to minute in my head to nope i'm not, yes i am, it's just hormones, nope, you're pregnant, you're not pregnant, et c. going crazy.

for those of you thinking you might be pregnant, do you think you ovulated or are you not sure. who all wound up pregnant immediately after stopping bcps?

do you think my situation is bcp withdrawel or the preggos?

ps- i was on the hcg diet when i suspected ovulation (no judging me for that)
pps - i take 50mg of minocycline daily and didn't think anything of it because the doc who rxed my camrese also rxd the antibiotics

I stopped taking my birth control pills a month ago today and lately I've been feeling so nauseous here and there and tired. my nipples have been so sore. I'm just not sure if this is something to worry about or if I'm ok. I was on this BC a few years back and don't remember any if these symptoms.....help

I stopped taking my birth control about a week ago, (I quit because I was taking antibiotics and had unprotected sex and i didnt know it would afftect my bc.) Now im bleeding, i have been for 3 days about. I have a ton of cramps and headaches. I took a test Saturday morning and it came out negative. I had unprotected sex yesterday again, and he cam in side me. If i continue bleeding does that affect my chances of being pregnant? Someone help me what to consider and watch out for. Thanks (im really young so. Help please)

Hi.. I'm 24 and I had an abnormal period in nov lasted for 20 days..so my dr put me in a combined bc pill to stop the bleeding within 24 hrs...10 days after taking the pill which I took at different times my boyfriend n I had sex he came in me like 3 times on the 5th n 8th since then I think I'm pregnant. I started lightly bleeding on the 18th I had cramps the night before the period lasted 3 days but the cramps were horrible like stretching and pressure on my bottom my back was hurting.. Up until now I've been nauseas in the morning blood pressure drops and soon tired. Now about 3 to 4 weeks later my nipples hurt n itch too! Gas heartburn tired can't sleep but am tired thirsty too... I didn't test

Question for all you experienced women:
I have been on a pretty weak dose of BC for
about 2-3 years. I generally didn't take the pill
correct all the time. I missed some all of the time.
We are not worried about getting pregnant,
just letting God take control & when it happens
it happens. I officially quit taking it about a week
ago and i was ovulating on this particular day or
so an ovulation schedule claimed i was.
I know the pill is designed to stop women from
ovulating. Since then i feel exhausted all the
time, have brown spotting, am so hungry, emotional,
and tender breast? Could i be pregnant or is it impossible?
We have taken a few tests in the past and
have been disappointed.
