You are ovulating. It is normal after you stop taking the hormones which trick your body into not ovulating when you are taking them. what birht control does is to trick your body into thinking it is already pregnant by raising the amount of estrogen in your body and then when you stop taking it for the 7 day period for your period to happen it does the normal cycle in 7 days istead of 28. Now it is not getting the extra hormone and is adjusting itself back to 28 day cycles with ovulation at the middle of the cycle.

I think it's stress cause the same happens to me.You might want to change bc pills to a stronger so it doesn't screw up anymore.

Yes, this is normal.  Sometimes your cycle just changes like this.  It can be for many reasons for example stress, exercise, weight gain, even diet change.  I wouldn't worry about it.

Nothing wrong with you or your body if it only happens occasionally.  If it continues to happen though, see your doctor.\nI am assuming that you are not taking any hormonal birth control as you did not mention this.  Hormonal birth control (the pill, the patch, etc.) can really mess with your body and sometimes change the pattern of your cycles especially when you are first starting them or just after you've discontinued using them.\n\nI myself have just stopped taking hormonal birth control and I had 3 menstrual cycles in 5 weeks.  Doctor says it is nothing to worry about, my body is just getting back to "normal".\n\nBut if you ever suspect that you are bleeding due to a pregnancy or possible miscarriage, you should take a pregnancy test.

OK...you said women only but...everybody is wrong, so I am going to be nice and tell you what it is. Yea, I'm a man, but I am brilliant, so forgive me.  You have a small blockage very close to your ovary. This usually happens in your early 30s. Your body has a certain number of eggs to move out, and sometimes they build up and get stuck. That's why you have the feeling of a "blockage". You assume that it is your ovary because it is located so close to your ovary. This can clear up on its own, or could require a procedure to remove the blockage. I would drink lots and lots of water for a few days. It is OK to lightly massage the area, as this might move the blockage on. Again, I'm sorry that I am a man...NOT REALLY... Hope that this helps darling.

Have you seen someone regarding this-it sounds like your hormones and internal chemicals have shifted and perhaps need some re-balancing.

It could just be that your body is adjusting to being off the pill. The pill regulates your period and if you've been on it for awhile, your body is not used to having to regulate it without the hormones from the pill. Or it could just be that you have a normally long interval between periods. For some women its normal to only have a period every other month or only once a year. \n\nIf there's a chance you could be pregnant, you should take a test and see a Doctor. Otherwise give your body about 6 months to establish its own rhythm. If you don't have some sort of regularity by that time, see your doctor to make sure nothing is wrong. \n\nThere are also other things that can effect your cycle, such as other drugs, diet and stress.

Stopping a birth control often throws your hormones out of whack, it can take your body a little while to adjust to the changes. If you are concerned about it you should call your Dr., but my guess is just that your body is reacting to the loss of the bc hormones.

Stress can really make a woman's body react. Or sometimes if women are really active, like a runner or another fast paced sport could stop a period. Age as well. It could be nothing, but to be sure, you should see your gyno and let them know so they can do a few tests. It's better to know. Then you're stress level will go down and all will be ok :)

It may be nothing it may be something, if it hasn't happened before I wouldn't ignore it. If you are sexually active there is a possibility you are pregnant, or if you have been experiencing higher levels of stress it could be that. go get a pregnency test from the drugstore and rule that out and go from there!!

I had the same thing happen to me and my birth control wouldn't stop it. You should visit the doctor but what he told me was to keep taking the pill until the pack was finished then he started me on some with lower hormones.And within a few days I was back to normal.

It is your hormones adjusting to the change in your body.  That happened to me several times. It will stop.

i hope its not too abnormal becuase thats what happened to me. especially if its only a day or too.. i wouldnt worry. i went almost 2 months without a period after discontinued use of the pill and my doc said everything was fine. i wouldnt let it go much longer though, especially if you have concerns.

There are quite a few possibilities.  This does happen to some women on a regular basis.  If this is typical for you, and you've mentioned it to your gyne in prior visits, I wouldn't be overly concerned.\n\nHowever, if this is new for you, or you're experiencing different symptoms (like an increase/decrease in flow, spotting, increased cramping), then I would suggest going to your doctor to make sure everything's ok.  It may just be your body going through a change, or reacting to stress, but it's always good to get checked out to be safe.\n\nAlso, I would suggest taking the pregnancy test to rule that out.  Nothing is 100% (except if you're not having sex at all), even condoms, the pill, or tubal ligation.

if you are not having sex and you can totally rule that out...(pregnancy)\nit could be stress or change in diet ,  excessive working out\nor it actually be something going on with your hormones
