No Period after stopping birth control pill?

I was on Ortho Tri-Cyclen for about 3 years or so and i stopped taking it.





Is it possible that i'm going to skip a few periods?





Is my period going to be very irregular again like it was before i took birth control?No Period after stopping birth control pill?
I stopped taking ortho in April this year and my period has been irregualr ever sense. I haven't skipped any periods, they just returned to being irregular after I discontinued use. If you miss any cycles you should consult your gyn.No Period after stopping birth control pill?
If you were irregular before you went on the pill, there is a 98% chance you'll be irregular when you go off of it. It depends on why you went on it. If you have PCOS, your periods will never be regular.





For some women who don't have hormonal disorders, their periods return to normal after being ';trained'; on the pill.
If you were irregular before you started the pill then it is highly likely you will be irregular again once you are off it. The pill doesn't magically fix things, it just overrides them while you take the pill.
That should not happen normally. You should get a cycle after you stop taking it.





The last week of your pills is a placebo pill anyway, so stopping taking them and taking the placebo pill is the same thing.





However, if you had amenorrhea (not having a period) before taking the pill 3 years ago, then it is possible that it will come back. Taking the pill regulates many women's cycle so they will have a regular period.
