A member asked:
Regular periods before pill. irregular after stopping them. its been 6 months, and have had 2 normal periods, and now constant light brown spotting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hormones: Taking the pills did not make your periods irregular now, but they masked a hormonal irregularity causing your to not ovulate regularly and therefore have irregular menses. Now that you're off the pills you're body is doing what it wants to do on its own. The good news is it can be fixed easily.
