I know this is not what you are looking for, but it is different for all women. I had period monthly right after birth control, but they were crazy for about 6 months. it really just depends. Have you called your doctor to ask? I know there is something they can do to bring on a period after a certain point. I think it is worth a phone call. hang in there.

I may not be much help either, but here goes. Every woman is different - I went off the pill just this cycle, and found that within days of ending my period, I was entering my fertile time based on CM and CP. It was crazy.

Every woman is completely different. When I went off the pill last year, (we TTC'd, then after a loss I went back on it), it took 3 months of no periods - I finally called into my ob's office and they sent in a script of progesterone to take to start my cycle back up.

I would encourage you to call your doctors office - make a visit (call it a preconception visit) and let them know you haven't had a period since coming off the pill and you're concerned. They will more than likely prescribe a medication called progesterone - you take 1 pill for a few days, and then about 2-3 days after the last pill, you will start a new cycle.

Best of luck!

I know that everyone's body is different but for me personally, I never got a normal "period". Before BC, I had a normal 28 day cycle every month and a heavy period for 3-4 days. I was on BC for 4 years. First, I had the Implanon for 3 years and then the pill for a year. We decided to go off the pill July 2014, we weren't really TTC but weren't preventing it either. While on BC I rarely had a period, maybe a day of spotting every few months. Well once I came off BC, that continued. A day or spotting every couple months, then Jan and Feb 2015 spotting occurred around the time of expected period. We got married Feb 28, 2015. I had my "day of spotting" Feb 23. So we still didn't think I was ovulating! Then, BAM honeymoon baby. Received a BFP on March 19th. So we conceived 8 months months after coming off BC, and I never had a "Normal Period"
