So my husband and I decided now was the time, so I stopped taking my birth control about a month ago. It’s a combo pill that I was on for a little over a year. I was supposed to get my period starting this past Thursday but still haven’t gotten it. I felt super PMS (like headaches, cramps, fatigue) like I do before I would get it, and I still have the fatigue and cramping.

Has anyone else ever skipped a period because of stopping birth control?

I’ve been on the fence about seeing the doctor, should I go or wait a little while?

I know I shouldn’t get my hopes up since it’s only been a month, but I’m excited about the prospect of being pregnant.
