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.
