when i go off birth control, it always takes between 3 - 7 days for my period comes. I wouldnt stress too much, but wouldnt be a bad idea to take a pregnancy test anyways

sorry for being too dumb does that mean a woman would not have period as long as she’s on birth control?

no you take it for 3 and a half weeks and the last 4 are blank ones where you get your period. then you start over but you still get your period every month unless your on the birth control that makes you not get your period.

A lot of it has to do with what BCP you’re on, also.

Either way, the original poster, don’t worry about not having your period just yet. Like everyone said, it takes a while for your body to get back on track.

Aren’t you going to get new ones anyway?
