Experiences after stopping pill

[Mia06]

Hi

I stopped taking my combined pill 9 weeks ago after being on it for 9 years. First month had period the same as I had whilst on pill light and 4-5 days. 2nd month had very light bleeding for 2 days only and different to usual was also 3 days early. Took a test incase but negative.

Pre pill my periods were quite heavy but I was a teenager.

Just wondered other people’s experiences coming off pill? How long it took to conceive and the affect on periods?

My mood is also very up and down which is unlike me, feeling very sad crying then happy etc

Any other people experiences be appreciated

Where we’re on the pill, we’re masking our cycle, so it’s normal that it’s different now. Your body is adjusting and you’re figuring out what your cycle looks like. As long as you ovulate, fertilisation is possible. Are you tracking ovulation? Xx

Hi Thanks for reply. I’m not tracking ovulation yet by doing tests as didn’t want to put too much pressure on myself but will start in couple months if nothing happened. but I am putting period etc on app to see fertile window.

I hope this month my period will be more normal.
