I was on birth control (nuva ring) for 3 years. I QUIT taking it in December 2008! After that my periods where a normal 33 days each cycle. Then it in May it went to 41 days, then it went to 45 days!
So, my LMP was JULY 9th. Then AUG. 7-9th I had spotting. Which I have never had! It was brown spotting with some pink, only when I wiped, so I didn't need a pad. I did have some slight cramping too. After that I tons of headache for the whole next week.
(I rarely get headaches)
I thought it might have been implantation bleeding...so I took a HPT (dollar general kind) on the 15th.. it was negative, so I waited another week until Aug. 22. Still negative.
I have also had very slight cramps some since.
So now its the 26th and my period hasn't come and I'm just confused about it all. I have not been under stress this summer and I haven't changed my diet. I started the gym in May. Oh, and my DH and I have been TTC this summer.
Is happening as side effects of coming off the birth control, or something else? Or is there anyone that has had anything like this happen to them? Or perhaps do you think that the spotting was my period?
I have a doctors appt. on Sept. 9th. so I'm just asking for opinions since its 2 weeks away!
I don't think I'm pregnant b/c I have a daughter and when I was pregnant with her my period just never came and I found out at 5 weeks and I had all the classic symptoms .
