Stopped Birth Control Pills, When Is My Period Due? Posted: 11-07-07 01:09am
Hey everyone!
I was only on the pill for about 2 weeks
before I stopped ( bad side effects) I had
my "period"/ the withdrawal bleeding a day
or 2 after I stopped taking the pills for
about 4 or 5 days. I was just wondering
when to expect my next REAL period. I had
my withdrawal bleeding October 14th.
Should I expect my period to come (as it
normally did before the pill) 30 days
after Oct. 14th or will it most likely be
a little later or a little earlier. I have
a trip out of town soon so I just want to
know around when to expect it so I'm not
surprised at a bad time on my trip! (like
on a hike! Ahhh!)
Thanks in advance!

You weren't on the pill long enough to
give the side effects a chance to go away.
Doctors advise you try a pill for three
months. Obviously if the side effects was
migraines that's a different story.
Unfortunately, there is no way to predict
when your next period will come. It may be
early, it may be on time, or it may be
late. Take tampons on your trip!
