Yes irregular bleeding or spotting, especially if you stopped mid cycle is a common side effect of stopping BCP.
In my experience yes because your body is use to the pill and when it is taken away then your body thinks that it is that time again. Also wen you are supose to hae your pirod and you take the pills they are just a reminder pill so that you wont forget so it is not really medicated. Your body will think that you are not taking the medicine so it must be time to hav eyou cycle.

∙ 11y agoYes, you can bleed after discontinuing the pill. You know how your period starts when you start the last several pills in the pack? It is because those are placebos (fake pills) which trigger your body to start menstruating. That is what happens when you stop taking the pill. Totally normal!

∙ 11y agoThese answers regarding Birth Control are wrong and misinformed. You CAN get pregnant while taking birth control pills as they are only 99% effective. There is also no medical proof that continuing to take the pill while pregnant (unknowingly of course) will harm the foetus.

∙ 11y agoSome women do spot or bleed while taking birth control pills, particularly the pills that prevent a period for 3 months. However, if the bleeding is heavy or painful, you should talk to your doctor about it because there could be something else going on.

∙ 9y agoYes, stopping birth control pills will cause bleeding.
The hormonal birth control pill suppresses your menstrual cycles to stop ovulation, also stopping menstruation. When you stop taking the pills the drop in synthetic hormones triggers a withdrawal bleed, this is the bleed you normally get once per month on the placebo pills. If you miss a pill or stop the pills midway through the pack you will get a withdrawal bleed too.

Is it normal to get your period after stopping birth control and then not having it for a month and half?
On hormonal birth control your menstrual cycle is suppressed, as you no longer ovulate you no longer menstruate, instead women get a withdrawal bleed due to the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills or stopping the pills. If you come off hormonal birth control then it can take a few months for your menstrual cycles to return thus it can cause irregular or absent bleeding.
Can you get your period again a few days after stopping your birth control pills midpack?
Yes the bleeding experienced while taking the inactive pill is not a period, it is withdrawal bleeding caused by hormones dropping. Stopping the pill mid-pack will cause the same withdrawal bleeding.

It takes 4 to 6 weeks from the end of a packet - stopping mid cycle will cause spotting but should not delay your cycle from returning.
