hey guys, i just discountinued using the pill and was wondering what i should expect in terms of side effects of that. I was ortho tri lo for about a year and a half but decided to try to come off it this to see if my period is regulated on its own and because of my lack of sex life ive had htis year :(

anyways, this is my first week off and was just wondering whats normal in terms of effects.

In my personal experience, when I stopped, I noticed that I had a lot more cramping throughout my cycle.
