I came off the pill at the end of December and I've spotted 3 times but not had a proper period yet, when would you suggest that I did a test?

Thanks very much for any advice xx

HIya,

I wouldn't get too excited just yet. It can take months for your period to get back to normal after being on the pill. I didn't have a period for 2 months after I came off and have known others to take much longer - that's why a lot of doctors advise coming off the pill 6 months before you start planning - simply to let your body get back to normal.

If it'll put your mind at rest, then just do a test now! There are apparently tests out there which can tell quite soon if you're pregnant..... But please don't think that you are... that way, if the test comes up negative you're prepared, and if it's posative, it's a very nice surprise.

Good luck and let me know how you got on!!
Nicola
