There is no set time when your period will arrive as you've messed up your cycle by stopping BCP midway. However you will experience a withdrawal bleed and your period will arrive 4-8 weeks afterwards.

My doctor told me start the Monday after your period.

If you stop taking them in less than a week, you can count 7 days then start again, probably the same type of pills you had been taking or perhaps a different brand, but before you decide this, you need to check with your doctor which is fit for u. Otherwise, if it's been a while since you took them, then you can start immediately after your current or coming period this way you can know exactly that you are safe (from getting pregnant).

If you do you could get pregnant. This is not a good idea if you don't want to be. Keep taking them.

What pill are you on?????? Generally speaking, you can stop at any time but you will suffer cycle irregularities. You may not get your period for a few months or you may bleed excessively. When you take "the pill", the hormones in it trick your body into thinking it is pregnant, so if you stop abruptly you may set your menstrual cycle way out of sync! Y-THINK-Y

You stop taking Birth Control when you want to get pregnant, when you are no longer fertile, when you're not at risk of pregnancy (perhaps because your partner can't get you pregnant), or when you have a medical condition that makes birth control a bad idea.

If spotting occurs for two weeks should I stop taking the birth control or will the spotting stop?

When you start birth control it is not unlikely to have spotting or breakthrough bleeding. This is a side effect that can last up to 3 months or longer. You should not stop taking your birth control because you will actually mess up your cycle and when you will have your period. You will also experience more spotting or breakthrough bleeding if you stop now. The spotting will go away,however, you should visit your physician to consider changing the dosage of birth control. Spotting and breakthrough bleeding usually stops when switched to a higher dosage of birth control.
