It's different for each individual .Woman. Your doctor can prescribe medication that will cause you to have your period (my friend uses them regularly). If you are concerned, you should make an appointment to see your doctor. It could take up to a full year for you to start ovulating again but in theory you should be experiencing a regular period again.
Peace,
jenn

You can go to planned parenthood. They may be able to give you an idea what to expect.

When I stopped taking my pills (ortho novum) in may 05, I didn't have another period until september 05. Then I went and got on a different pill (ortho lo) and my periods have been regular since then, and I am not emotional like I was on ortho novum. But, it took almost 4 months to get my period back after stopping the pills.
