Q: Period After Stopping Pill?
asked by: daretoswim7709 on December 3rd, 2005

I stopped the pill about 6 days ago. A week before that I had gotten my period. 3 days after stopping the pill I got my period again and is still have it. Its still here been 4 days. I was just wondering if it was normal to get your period right after you stop your pill? Also I had only been on it for 6 months.

When I stopped the pill, I had just had my period, and had another one right after stopping it, then I didn't have another one for 3 months, then on the 4th month it came again, and I got back on birth control and it has been normal ever since. The doctor said it was normal, that I was just adjusting to getting off of it. Hope this helped!

I am in a similar situation. I stopped taking YAZ about 4 days ago and have gotten my period a full 2 weeks early.
So this is a normal thing to happen after your body gets off the borth control?

I cam of Yaz and my period came 5 days early (which is usually how long it takes to come when I take my 7 day break), then I tracked my next period to a normal 29 day cycle, but my period came another 9 days early, or at least I think it was a period? It was extremely light and I would class as spotting. But my cramps were much worse than normal. When the spotting stopped the cramps have continued every day. This is so confusing, I don't think I am ever going to go back on BC.

I was hoping to be pregnant but I keep getting negative results. Today I am 2 days late for my period and early response pregnacy tests haven't detected anything Sad
