Regularity After Going Off the Pill

Ok, I stopped taking my bcp towards the
end of november and my period started
about two days later. It was light
still, but def. There. Since then, my
periods are completely regular to the day,
but now they're even lighter and it's
mostly old blood.. Hardly any red at all.
I was just wondering if this is normal
or if it could be a preg. Sign, since it
is regular to the day. I've taken a
test and it was negative, but it's been
like this for two months, so if it does it
again this month, I think i'm going to get
a blood test done. What are your guys'
opinions?

It is probally your body, and your period.
Its just getting itself regulated and it
is very normal. I dont think that you are
pregnant but I am no doctor. If it is to
the tee every month now that is probally
your period. Good luck hun....

Do you notice the brown blood when you
have intercourse?

Because when I got off of b/c and my
period finally came down, I had the same
problem. It all just liked brown. Not
red at all. It was kind of weird but I
guess it was ok. Mine lasted for like 2
weekd straight at first. Then got
regular. After my like 3rd reg. Period,
it started to get reddish again..

Were your periods irregular before you
went on the pill?

Nope...The reason why I got on the pill is
because when I bled it was an enormous
amount and I would lose large amounts of
iron every time. Also to easy the
cramping. I actually maintained the same
period before and during. But after was a
whole nother story...

you r system was so used to the pills?

Hey jessamyn,
i kinda thought that's what it was at
first, but just the fact that I got my
period two days after coming off the pill,
and then it's been completely regular.
We just recently started ttc, so i'm not
dissapointed yet or anything, but my
friend's mom said she spotted just like
that when she was preg, and that's why she
didn't know she was preg. Until 4 months.
Maybe it will be heavier or something
this month.. We'll see :)
