After stopping bcp, what were your AFs like for the first few months? The reason why I ask is that I went off bcp in June. 3 days after stopping, had a very light period for about 2 days. Then 33 days later, had spotting. Nothing more than that. Lasted about 2 days or so. Didn't even have to use anything for protection. Not sure when I O'd if I even O'd at all. Could my spotting in July have been IB or just a normal AF for getting off the pill? So confused and still looking for answers.

My first periods off BCP were very irregular. At first spotting and far apart, then about every 32 days for awhile and very heavy. Now they are irregular again. I have been off BCP for 11 months now. Hope this helps a little. Meliss
