Varies: Most women will have a period 2-4 weeks after stopping the pill, but this depends on the individual and what their cycle is normally like. Weight, health, stress, exercise, and conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), can all influence your cycle of periods. Your periods may be irregular when you first come off the pill, and you should allow up to six months for your natural menstrual cycle to re-establish itself fully. It's quite common to have a longer delay before normal periods start again after stopping the pill, particularly if you have run two or three packets together. This is because the pill contains the hormones that stop ovulation (the release of an egg) each month.
