If you are sexually active you may be pregnant - but it may take a couple months return to your own menstrual pattern after stopping the pill. If you were irregular before you started the pill, you will likely go back to that irregular pattern. Use a backup method such as condoms if pregnancy is not in your plans.

Taking a birth control pill will not stop you from getting your period. It might make your periods shorter and lighter.
