Period After coming off Microgynon 30?

I stopped taking the pill over 4 weeks ago as I'd just came out of a long term relationship. I had a bleed as normal but have had nothing since. I'd been on the pill for 10 years so I have no recollection of how regular I was before.

I guess it will probably take a while for my body to re-adjust and find it's cycle agagin.

If anyone has been in a similar situation what was your cycle like to begin with and did it take long to settle down?

Thanks for reading, I hope you had a Merry Christmas

Shamelessly bumping....

I think it can often take a while for things to settle down again. I took the pill for six cycles in the summer and even just that caused me to have two much longer cycles (32-24 days) than normal (24 - 26 days) for my first two "natural" periods afterwards.

Happy Christmas!

Thanks Red Queen - another quick question for everyone! How soon after EWCM should a period start? I've heard that EWCM means ovulation so I'm guessing it'll be 2 weeks from then that period will start?

Gosh, I feel like a teenager with all the period questions! I'm away for New Year and I'm hoping I'll be period free 'til I'm back!

Thanks, hope you have a happy Hogmanay!

Me again! How long should I wait for period to arrive before heading to the docs?
