A member asked:
Could it take more than 35 days to get my period if i stopped my birth control? i stopped the 22nd of march, and i've only seen "spotting" twice.

Possible: After stopping hormonal birth control it may take some time for regular periods to resume. However, should always get a pregnancy test (if that is a possibility) and schedule with an OBgyn to start a workup on the numerous things that can cause irregular bleeding. The birth control pills could have been masking an underlying tendency for irregular menses and now you're just seeing it

Yes: Takes some time for the body to regulate. Now it is also a good idea for you to take a pregnancy test if you are sexually active
