1st bleed 20 days after stopping the Mini pill- period or withdrawal bleed?

[SophieGeorge83]

Hi All,
I've been on the pill/Mini pill for the last 11 years (2 years on Mini pill). I've stopped the pill in December as we are TTC. I didn't get any bleeding until 20 days after my last pill. Is this a withdrawal bleed or a true period? I've had cramps which I've never had with a withdrawal bleed but it's lighter than my pre-pill periods.
If it is a withdrawal bleed, should I wait another month and a true period before TTC?
Thanks!

Hello

I don't have an answer for you but just wanted to let you know I'm in same boat.

I had a very light bleed about 3 weeks after stopping mini pill and then I think I ovulated on roughly cycle day 14 if I took the bleed as my period (based on cm). Am expecting AF on the 27th now.

Have you had any signs you may have ovulated?

It's so hard to know after the pill and if it helps I was on the pill for that length of time (12 years on combined and 3 years on mini) and I got PG with my first in 2 months so it can be very quick.
