After Ortho Tricyclen
Posted: 04-06-06 00:18am

I was just wondering if it's normal for women to be late for a period after their first month of being off of ortho tricyclen. Has anyone experienced this as well? If so, when did it finally come?

Yes it is normal when you first start the pill. It takes a while for your body to adjust to the hormones in it. When I use to take it I would get my period on the thursday of my sugar pill week. I only had my period for like 3 days to. Now that I don't take birth control I really miss knowing when my period was lol. Good luck!

Yes, it is normal to have irregular periods when you have come off of birth control. Your body has been sort of on a hormone timer for a while, and now without that timer it has to get back into its own rhythm. Just give it a couple of months and you should become more regular.
