Charting after going off the pill/long term pill use
I'm charting for my first full cycle after going off the pill. I've been on the pill for 13 years and had very painful cramps before I went on it. I stopped the pill in Nov and had a period/withdrawal bleeding Nov 17-19 (short and not super heavy but I wasn't having heavy periods before the pill or on the pill). I didn't chart Nov- Dec. I had another period Dec 14-16 (so a 27 day cycle) assuming that what I had in Dec was a true period-- again, 3 full days. My cramps werent bad either period but I had TERRIBLE debilitating headaches. I started charting on Dec 14.
I'm now 21 days into this cycle and no temp jump-- I'm wondering if I should be expecting annovulatory cycles for a while with 'periods' or long cycles back against short cycles or what -- what have others' experiences been with charting atet going off the pill following long term use? Thanks much!
