Quitting the Pill Question Posted: 06-23-05 10:01am
I have been on birth control pills for 8
years now. My question I am seeking an
answer for is this. What side affects
come with quitting the pill. Is there
missed periods the first couple months,
spotting... If you have an answer please
let me know. This is going to be a new
experience for me not being on the pill!

I've gotten off the pill several different
times. And it seems to me that the
symtoms were similar to what happened to
you when you got on them. I just
recently got off ovcon, and I felt nauseus
at times, my boobs lost a cup size (back
to normal), and my period got heavier, and
crampier. But the good news is your not
taking a pill everyday, and not as
emotional, or in my case a little nutty.
Ha. I did have my period on time the
first month, but late the second month.
It all has to do with your bodys hormones.
You've been on it for a while, so I
would expect it to take a while to get
your body back to normal.
