Ladies,
I need advice.
I went off bc about three months ago. It was causing me to bleed crazy size blood clots. So, anyway my period has been kind of off. Two months ago it started on a Wednesday, last month Tuesday. This month I was expecting yesterday. Still nothing. So I thought maybe my calculations are off and guessed today, nothing. I've been cramping and all for almost a week so really thought it would be here by now! My boobs are sore but they always are with my period and aren't any where near as bad as when I was pregnant. I'm not sure what to think.
So my question, have your cycles ever been off after bc? Is it normal to be late?
But can someone help ease my anxiety?!

Yes cycles can be off after BC. Yes it's normal to be late. My cycles weren't regular until AFTER my kids were born--after 30.

I agree with Bunsy. When I can off birth control I was really out of whack for at least a year. Maybe calling a nurses line would help your anxienty.

Ya, your system is just outta wack, hon... you need to slow down a bit and let your body catch up to all the life changes and emotional stress of the past months... Give it time, honey!

ditto on what all gals said. it can take months to get everything back to normal but if you are still worried you might want to give your doc a call.

Mother Nature likes to keep us guessing sometimes. I was freaking out a while back because mine was 10 days late and the only time I'm late is when I'm knocked up! DH had a vasectomy but I was afraid we were one of those "oops it reattached and now I'm pregnant" stories. I took a preg test and it was neg. The next day I got my period. Big sigh of relief.

Oh my cycle took a few months, probably like 5 or 6 to get back to normal. then i went and had surgery that screwed it all up again! Just give it time...our bodies are weird that way.
