I was just wondering if anyone has an opinion or experience with this. I have come off the pill 3 weeks ago after my husband's vasectomy. Since then, I have been trying to lose weight. I know the pill has always been an issue in my weight so I half expected to lose the weight quicker since being off the pill. However, I have steadily been putting weight on since! About 8lbs!!
Does anyone know if it can take a while for your hormones to adjust not being on the pill. I am getting disheartened. Help!

A friend of mine found out she was pregnant 3 weeks after her dh's vasectomy

Sorry, that was really unhelpful! No useful ideas, just a bump for you.

Thankyou for that littlefish!
My husband had his vasectomy in Jan, and we have the result of his specimen, so I would hope that isn't the case!!!

Don't get disheartened, it can take a little while for the hormone levels to go back to normal after you stop taking the pill. Not sure how long it takes though.
