So I stopped taking my pill on 1st April at the end of the packet then had my usual week break and bleed. Do I count that as my withdrawal bleed? So now waiting for my first 'normal' period? Or am I still waiting for withdrawal bleed? Haven't had any spotting or anything.....
 
I'd count that as your first withdrawal bleed and your next bleed should be your first period :) what pill were you on? I was on Microgynon and it took me a year to get my periods back when we were TTC our son. But Dr said thats super unusual! xx

Thank you for replying.
I was on rigevidon. You poor thing, that must've been horrible waiting. I've heard so many different experiences with people coming off the pill. Didn't realise when I was taking it month after month :shock: Hopefully I'll be 'normal-ish' soon x
 
I was on it for 10 years though so maybe that had something to do with it. We ttc properly for 6 months with no luck, then as soon as we stopped "trying" and were relaxed about it Bam I fell pregnant! Hope you get back to normal cycles soon sweet! Good luck with your TTC journey, enjoy and try to relax! Xxx

I agree with this.
Also took me a year to have a period after stopping :-/ but I had undiagnosed pcos.

Oh wow, can I ask what your symptoms were or how you got to a diagnosis? Xxx
