Yeah, the in-evitable could be possible, but from what you've stated, you could be naturally excess or high estrogen naturally. I haven't stopped BC's yet, however, my doctor said when I did, it could take as at least 3 cycles to 'rite' myself.
You may very well be progesterone deficient. Ladies in this case don't have regular periods..and it takes a while to get them. Most, after taking progesterone on Days 21-26, seem to start more regular.
It's a wait and see, and maybe 'buy' a kit.
Hope that's a lil' something.

It's not really uncommon for periods to be irregular after stopping BCP's - even if the first one is "normal".
If pregnancy is a distinct possibility, however, tests are only $10 at the drug store, can be done any time of day or night and are as accurate at day 37 as a Doctor's office test.
Put yourself out of suspense - this is something you'll want to know.

You might want to stay off the herbs until you know one way or the other. It's better to have a break in your BE program than to have a miscarriage, or even worse, impose birth defects on your child.
I think Fawn hit the nail on the head. Get tested.

I agree with everyone else...better safe than sorry. Take the home preg. test and see how it comes out. Then atleast u will know what's going on. They are pretty accurate...and speaking from experience can be taken after the first missed day if u have pretty regular periods. I did have two times within the last 5 years that I was about 3 weeks late and not pregnant. I was really bloated and looked preg. but took the test and was not. I think for alot of women, the idea of an unplanned pregnancy will stress u out. This can also make u later...so try to relax and just go buy yourself a test. Let us know what happens. Kell
