Coming off Microgynon pill ?

[louiise98]

So, bare with me, this could be a long message, basically I've been on Microgynon for a few years, can't off when I had my first daughter and started taking it three week/ a month after I had her, I had my withdrawal bleed from the 11th of July to the 15th, i then missed my window of a week after to start taking it and be protected straight away, I took it for four days and then came off it as me and my boyfriend had a talk and decided we would like to start ttc, I then had a withdrawal bleed from the 25th to the 27th, I was wondering if my next period would be around the 8th of August, i.e my normal cycle from my period or would it be from the 22nd of August i.e cycle after my withdrawal bleed ? I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas, I feel like I should be due on, bloated, tired, weepy, but I'm unsure and was wondering if anyone else had any experience with this ? Thankyou

Your next af will likely be about two weeks after you ovulate, whenever that may be.

I would think it’s likely to be the latter because your next af will be a natural bleed, not withdrawal. I’m on cycle 2 having come off Rigevidon in June and I had a 35 day cycle when I was a 28 day clockwork cycler on the pill! I tracked my ovulation (though they recommend you don’t the first month off the pill) and that helped me to guess when I’d have af as I knew the day I’d ovulated. Even then I was wrong! So your best bet is to find out when you ovulate and go from there.

I've been using Ovia to track basil body temp and ovulation tests and so far don't seem to have spiked, but I'm feeling really crampy and weepy, my app says I'm supposed to start my period tomorrow so I'm wondering if I will or not, so frustrating trying to get your cycle back to normal after bc
