The Big AF

How long after going off the pill did you get your AF?  I got mine about 3 days after my last pill, but I believe that is the forced period we get with the pill.  I haven't gotten one since, but I have gotten a bfn.  Any thoughts?

I stopped my BC around 6/23 and got my Period about 28 days later. I only had my Period for about 3 days and than I got my Period again for about 3 days and than I got Pregnant. So I was still on a 28 day Cycle until I got Pregnant and than I M/C and ever since then my Cycles have been getting longer and longer...
Going off the pill can definitely mess up your Cycle, so it may just be that. You could always get blood drawn to know for sure. I wish you luck!

I quit the pill 12/1.  I began to bleed 3 days later (withdrawal bleeding).  I got my true period 12/31, which lasted 5 days (how it was before the pill) and I got pregnant on that period.

When I quit my pill on October 21st I started bleeding only a few days later and that lasted for about two days.  I never got a REAL period after that............I got pregnant right away instead:)  I was lucky!  I didn't get my actual BFP though until Thanksgiving, but I felt preggo for up to two weeks prior to that and got a bunch of negative HPTs.  I hope this helps & good luck!

I got my period exactly 28 days later and had stayed on that cycle until of course I got pregnant. Then after my son was born i went on depo shot (never again!!!) and was still on a 28 day cycle after that. How long has it been? If no AF in another week test again if you are still getting a bfn  you can always put a call in to your doctor!!
