Periods very short after contraception

I finally decided to come off contraception this Feb and start TTC. I had been on the depo injection for years but swapped to the mini-pill roughly a year / year and a half ago.

Since coming off the pill I have had 3 periods but they are lasting only two days (max) is this normal? I'm a bit concerned, as even on the mini-pill I would have a longer flow cycle although it was much more irregular.

@Purplejaffacakecat88 hello, I had the same thing 8 months on from coming off pill. Very very light and only lasting 2 days. I went to the GP as I was concerned but he didn't really think it was an issue. I just got my BFP so wasn't an issue in conceiving. Smile You're still quite early being off contraception so you might find things change over the next few months. I probably wouldn't worry too much about it anyway. Hope that's helps.

Yes, it's still early days. I didn't get a proper period for a while after getting my mirena coil removed. It didn't seem to affect me getting pregnant though so try not to worry too much.

I came off the mini-pill in March. I've had two periods since, right when I would expect them but not like my pre-pill periods. First day is spotting/light, second day is heavier, third day is back to spotting and then practically gone.
