Q How long will it take for my period to come after finishing the pill? Ive been on it for around 2 and a half months now, i was on my last pack of pills this month but stopped taking it around 5 days early as i was due to finish it completely. So i should be expecting my period some time soon, though as ive stopped taking it a few days earlier than i should have - will this delay my period even more? I stopped taking it 3 days ago now.
Birth control pills are a long term commitment. They alter the bodys hormone levels in order to regulate the menses. After stoppage of the pill, your body will take some time to readjust and start producing hormones to regulate the menstrual cycle naturally. Thus, in order to start having menses normally again, it may require a few days, weeks or even months. That is completely subjective and cannot be predicted. However, your body wont be harmed in any way, so rest assured!
