Heavy Bleeding After Birth Control

I’m experiencing heavy bleeding after stopping birth control. After my failed FET, I got my period and started birth control again. I stopped 3 days ago and used my first vivelle dot patch today. I went from spotting to a full flow. Has anyone experienced this?

This happening to me too! I stopped BC on Tuesday and have a full flow now. I’m supposed to start my stims tonight so I did send my nurse a note just to confirm everything is okay :) waiting for her response but I think it’s pretty normal after stopping BC.

It is normal. I was on birth control for 10 days before ng ivf. I started them jan 4th (which was CD3) and stopped them jan 13th. Got another bleeding jan 17th which they call it withdrawal bleeding and was considered as another period and started stims jan 19th (which was the new CD3) ..

Yes I actually just went through that last week! Got a heavy flow after 3 days of stopping BC and it’s completely normal! The most critical is when you are getting closer to your FET and if you are still bleeding you may want to consult your Re! I’m talking about maybe 7 days prior FET. Hope all goes well! ❤️
