A member asked:
I stopped taking my birth control, and now i'm 23 days late for my period. 100% sure i'm not pregnant. what is going on?

Give it some time: It's not uncommon for the first few periods after stopping you birth control to be irregular in timing and flow. It may take 2 to 3cycles before you return to normal. Remember, if you don't want to be pregnant , you must use some form of protection.
