Off the Pill

Ali
I went off birth control pills (Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo) in May after being on them for 7 years. My cycles since then have been 27, 32, and 36 days with ovulation on CD 17, 21, and 22. My luteal phase seems to be lengthening now, which is a relief as it was only 10-11 days the first two cycles off. I'm hoping things even out soon. This process has helped me appreciate my body more, and while I understand why I chose to go on BCP, I don't think I'll use them again. Just wanted to share this part of my story and invite anyone else to share experiences, questions, etc.
