Coming off desogestrel

I'm just after hearing peoples experiences of coming off desogestrel to TTC.
Did you get a withdrawal bleed straight away? How long did it take for you to get a proper period?
Just want to know what I might be in for!

Hey there,
I will say it varies so enormously from person to person. Personally, I came off the pill early July, and didn't my first period until end of september. I didn't have a withdrawal bleed.
I've ovulated recently, so I'll be due for my next period in 2 weeks (or pregnant haha). I have fairly long cycles (and always have)

Hope this helps! x

I came off that pill beginning of June and had my withdrawal bleed 3 days later for 3 days and then had my first period end of June and have I had a period every month between 26/29 days. Currently on CD 24. I ovulated in June too. The first month I felt horrid it really took my body a good month or so to get use to it. This is just my experience but hope it helps alittle

I came off Desogestrel 3 weeks ago, had a withdrawal bleed in the first week and 2 weeks later feel horrendous with sore boobs, bloating, nausea, headache, insomnia, reduced appetite etc. Has anyone else had side effects? How long does it last?
