bleeding

This is worrying me.  I have had bleeding for 14 days, i think it is a period, but not sure.  I had spotting a week before, i thought i was pregnant, but am not.  

I don't know if i am bleeding two weeks becuase of the birth control i have stopped.  I had implanon (implant in my arm).  Could this be just my cycle getting into sync?  Any advice would be helpful

I think that you are bleeding because of the birthcontrol I had this same thing when I went from the patch to the pill.If you get very bad cramps or at anytime you are bleeding more than a normal period go to the E.R. I think you should just give your D.R a quick call just to fill him/her in and they will tell you what you need to do.All in all I think your fine! GOOD LUCK!!

I agree.  If this is your first cycle after stopping BC then your cycle is going to be different.  Some bleed for 2 to 3 weeks after stopping and you might be one of those.  If the bleeding is heavy I suggest calling your gyno.  If you haven't had a pap in a year I suggest going to the gyno too.  Good Luck!
