sometimes it takes your cycle a few months to get back on track.what were you taking?

its very common to not get your peiod after going off Birth Control i didnt take it one month and my period was all messed up but its only cuz your body is used to the hormones from the pill and once those hormones are gone your body isn't sure what to do. don't worry tho unless you had sex then i would take a test just in casee.

Yes, it's normal to stop having periods after you stop [hormonal] birth control.

Hormonal birth control works by suppressing your menstrual cycle in order to prevent ovulation so that you don't get pregnant, while you're using hormonal birth control you don't menstruate either - the bleeding women experience is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills. Coming off hormonal birth control your body has to regain it's normal menstrual cycle again, it can take up to 12 months for your cycles to regulate - but you should bleed within 3 months of stopping hormonal birth control, if you don't then see your doctor.

Yes this is normal. You will need to use a condom for the next month so the new BCP builds up in your system and prevents pregnancy.

It depends on the person and or pills
