Stop my bcp. lately i have been feeling tired? is it normal after getting off it? is it because lack of estrogen? help!

Feeling tired: There are many reasons for feeling tired, one of which is pregnancy, which can occur after you stop taking/using birth control. An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), anemia, inadequate sleep, and even depression can make you feel tired. So can stress, among many other causes. Therefore, if you continue to feel tired w/o explanation, go see your FamilyDoc for evaluation & treatment.
