Missed periods - stopped birth control Posted: 03-09-08 21:40pm
I stopped using birth control at the end
of July 07. I had a normal period at the
beginning of Aug. since I had just
finished my last pack of b.c. pills. After
that I didn't have another period until
late Sept to early Oct. Then I didn't have
my next period until two months later in
Dec. It has now been 3 months since my
last period in Dec. I know it takes some
women up to a year to become regular after
birth control but is it normal to have
irregular periods and then none at all
after quitting birth control?

This erratic menstrual behavior is
expected once you have gotten off birth
control as you know. I'd just be patient
and enjoy this period-free period;
normally we women have to be pregnant,
having hot-flashes or be too young to
truly enjoy it!!
If you do feel it is a worrisome issue,
then you can always go to the gyno and be
prescribed a hormone that kick-starts
ovulation.
