Is this my first period post birth control or could it be implantation bleeding?
Hi all, this month I finally stopped taking birth control, loestrin 24, after 3.5 years on it. While on the pill, I never had a period. I stopped taking the pill March 3, and did not have any breakthrough bleeding/spotting/a period. On March 16, I woke up in the middle of the night with what my Dr. and I both believe was ovulation pain. My Dr. said I should expect my first period March 31, if I were to even get one at all the first month off the pill. However, the past few days (DPO 9, 10 and 11), I have been having very light (only when I wipe) brownish spotting, and today it stopped entirely. I have not had any cramps and do not feel like I am having a period. This is all happening a few days before my period is supposed to start. I took an HPT 2 days ago, and again tonight, both negative. I'm wondering if 1. anyone else has a similar "period history" after discontinuing loestrin, and 2. should I bother taking another test in a few days or was this my period? Thanks in adva

Ok, so I got my first depo shot july 26 befofe thT my periods were regular(28 day cycles) after the shot I didnt have a period at all never got my second shot in oct but I did get constant abdominal pain tender breasts and overall crabbiness. Around mid feb my nipples became really sensitive,never felt thT before. So feb 26 I get my first period.it seemed slighgly heavier but nothing to trip about, bled for my normal 3 days with spotting on the 4th,also all pain in abdominal and bbs ceased.
