A member asked:

Will i stop my monthly bleeding if i stop taking birth control?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cycle patterns: A woman's cycle on birth control pill is governed by the pill she is taking. When she stops taking pills, her ovaries take over again and she falls back into her natural cycle pattern. Both cycle patterns may be more or less identical.
