When should I expect my next period?

[HellsKitchn]

Hey everyone! Really struggling to figure out when I should be expecting my next period. I was on the pill for 5 years and decided to stop taking it recently due to migranes, took the first combined pill of the last pack on 12/03 and then decided to stop (so only had one pill from the pack), then had a bleed for about 3 days from 15-17/03. So ideally when should I expect a period? Already done a pregnency test on 7/04 which said negative. Not trying to become pregnent at the moment.

Any help with this?

Thank you.

Hiya,

Really tough one to answer as the pill can take a while to get out of your system (I think sometimes up to a few months). Sounds like the first bleed you had was probably a withdrawal one from stopping the pill, so your period could be due anytime?!
What were your cycles like pre-pill, were you pretty regular?

I'd give it a bit of time for your body to try and get back to normal 🙂
