A member asked:

Can you please describe common things doctors do if my period doesn't return after birth control pills?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Evaluation: If your period did not return after stopping pills the doctors would evaluate you for anovulation which means you are not ovulating normally. They usually check blood work to see what could be affecting your cycles.
