What to expect when you first come off the pill?

I came off the pill (Microgynon 30, if that makes any difference) last Friday, apart from an out break of spots is there anything else I should expect along the way? This is will be our second child, but I was on depo before we had our DS, so have never come off the pill before!

Thanks

Hi I had an imlant out which is similar to coming off the pill.
My CM (cervical Mucus) took quite a while to return to normal, about 6 months,really only being as it should now. Evening primrose oil really helped me sort this out but it could have been a matter of time too.Otherwise everything went as normal I was told I would have a period which would be like the one I had when had the implant in and I returned to a pretty regular cycle. My periods are different, but are slightly heavier but I expected worse!
Hope this helps
Good luck
