coming off the pill

[86Hol]

Hi All,

Just thought i'd post my experience: I'm 22 and have been on some kind of hormone for about the last 10 years to help my heavy, long and irractic periods. Ive been on Marvelon, Depo (injection), Binovum and finally for the last few years Loestrin 30. I came off the pill end of Aug 08, had a normal (7 day break) bleed and nothing to date. I also took a pregnancy test as no bleeding at all is very unusual for me but it was negative. I dont know about you girls but even though me and my partner have not been 'trying' for a baby - the negative pregnancy test left me feeling empty and upset that i wasn't. It was almost like my body had gone into fantasy pregnancy mode - has anyone else experienced this?

hi ladies. good news, 4 weeks off the pill after 10 years on and i've had my first period. i think everyones body is different and we shouldn't worry about when our period will start again. i think worrying makes it worse

Hi All,

I came of the pill, two months ago. I started using a projestion cream to try and reguilate my hormones. My first period was fine. Came right on 28 days. It has now come up to being my second period, and Im late!!!! I was very sick last week, on antibiotics, and am wondering could this be the reason why they are late. I am having the usual symptoms of a a lead up period, 'Irritability, bloating, cravings, feeling generally ill, and sore boobs. I am really really worried. I have been using comdoms, and have also been testing my ovulation date so I don't fall pregnant. If any body has any advice...is this normal . I have had very light spotting...? Is this just the pill, and my hormones...?
