Period after BC?

Question

Hi ladies! How long did it take for your period to return after stopping birth control? I stopped taking lo loestrin fe last week and still no period yet. A lot of what I read said a withdrawal period would happen quickly. Will be TTC so anxiously awaiting my period and then tracking my cycle. Thanks all!

Answer

I was on Tri-Sprintec for almost 10 years when I stopped late July. I finished my pack... had the normal withdraw. Once I finished the pack I did not have any other bleeding in between. I got my first AF post pill 32 days later. So far so good. Don't sweat it if you don't have any bleeding in between. Everyone's body reacts differently to getting regulated. Good luck!

Answer

I stopped taking my bc on July 20th. Got withdrawal bleed on July 23rd for 3 days and just got AF today (Sept 1st) so a 40 day cycle. Before I started bc, my cycles we're between 25-29 days. Hoping to conceive before my husband starts his year long chemo treatment.

Answer

I was on Lo Loestrin as well! I stopped taking it on June 24th and started my first period on July 19th this year. My husband and I are TTC too but this is the first month we've tried as I wanted to have 2-3 normal periods, which I've now had. Good luck!

Answer

I was on the pill from ages 17-29. Been off just since the end of March and got my pill bleed like 3 days after stopping. It lasted 5 days, and 30 days later I had another 5 day period. The next month my period came in 32 days for 6 days. And this month it hasn't arrived yet (think it's been about 37 days). So at first I thought I would regulate pretty quick but now I'm thinking I may still be adjusting.
