How long was you on the pill?
Hi girls
I was on micro 30 for just under two years. Does it matter how long you have been on it? If you have not been on it for long does that mean it can leave your body faster than somebody who has been on it for years? Do you think it affects the side effects you might have once coming off the pill?

About 2 years ago I went on the mini-pill (new partner, and I am old) but came off it in October. I have been TTC eversince with no success. When I came off the mini-pill I was 5 days late with my period but now have a regular 23/24 day cycle.
All throughout my cycles when ON the pill my boobs would never be a signal - meaning, they wouldnt hurt or show when af was coming, after i finished the pill i would get EXTREMELY sore nipples and i mean like needles... it was something that would occur at particular times in the cycle but as i had such terribly long cycles i couldnt say what point it was. Symptoms id have were bloating, going off food (this was really weird) headaches, nausea, dizzy spells - i cant tell you how many times i 'thought' i was pregnant because id have classic symptoms... and thats the most heartbreaking part i think, because its like your body is playing tricks on you. I think its good to symptom spot - because you get to know your own body.. and like i said, im now in my second trimester of pregnancy and lets just say ive had it easy! So maybe its a good sign for you girls... crappy signals after the pill = good pregnancy!!!!!! lol....
One thing that used to occur, just for you to make note, and i never had this before. I thought i had implanation/ovulation spotting - maybe i was clutching onto straws? not sure.. but id have brown cm etc maybe 5-7 days BEFORE af even started... whereas before id have that literally hours before af... Its weird how your body can just change completely.
Trust me though, i know exactly how you are feeling right now, and i wanted to throw a bucket load of baby dust for you! I;ll keep floating incase there are any other questions

It;s very odd I feel as if I am coming on though as this is my first natural bleed after the pill I have no idea when it will be. Like you I had very sore nips fr0om after OV and they have stayed the same. Now today my boobs are soooo sore at the sizes but I have not really had any sickness or dizzy spells as of yet!!!
Part of me just wants to come on so that we can try again and I just know we have not done it this month.
I never use to have cramps before AF it would just turn up but for the last three days have had cramps, little pains in my groin area?
