Side Effects from going OFF the pill?
| Thu, 06-29-2006 - 10:14am |
Hey all,
I have been on Ortho Evra for a few years now. Before that, I was on the pill for maybe 10+ years. I have gone off BC and was wondering if there were any changes in my body that I can expect. I KNOW that I was irregular before, and will still be irregular. I know that my 4 day period will go back to 7 and I will have harder cramping and heavier flow. Anything else I can expect?
Many thanks in advance!


Because you've been suppressing ovulation for so many years, a lot of things could have changed.

I know this is an old post but I was just lurking around and had to give you my answer.
Be prepared for cervical mucus like you've never experienced before. The first time I saw it I thought I had contracted some kind of bizarre disease. It was literally like egg whites coming out into the toilet.
I just say this so you don't freak out when and if it happens to you!

Thanks for the heads up. I most likely would freak out! lol
Have a great week and thanks again!
