First cycle after birth control

Hey all! So this is my first month off Nuvaring. I know it's possible to ovulate right after getting off birth control, but also know it can take a while for your body to regulate. Anyway, this week was my ovulation week, and I did have some cramping (mild) and hella mood swings. I cried at the most ridiculous things 😂 Not sure if I ovulated this month, if my body is trying to regulate, or if it was a combination of the two lol 🤷🏼‍♀️ Did anyone else have funky things going on with their body when they first got off their birth control?

Following! I'm on my 4th NuvaRing, and I definitely want to know all about this too! I'm especially curious how fast people conceived after stopping NuvaRing (did they conceive on 1st ovulation, 2nd ovulation, 3rd, etc). How long were you on NuvaRing before you went off it?

Hi there! I was on it for 9 months. Before that I was off birth control for a year (we were long distance and my insurance didn't cover Nuvaring so it wasn't worth it lol), and before that was on it for 1 year. The first time I came off Nuvaring, I had the same symptoms. My periods remained regular, so that was nice.
