Advice please - coming off pill

[Ashley3189]

Hi, I come off cerazzette pill on 18th July and I had 5 days of bleeding from 24th-29th July and I thought this was a period.
Going by this I should have been fertile this week and ovulate on Thursday but for the past 2 days I'm bleeding again, day 1 was a few hours of brown spotting and then day 2 was a few hours of red/pink blood. Now day 3 and nothing again!!

What is going on??
Anyone had anything similar??

Thanks.

Hi chick,

The first time I came off of Cerazette I had something similar - after about 3 weeks off of the pill I had a bleed for about 4/5 days and then about a week later had some spotting.
This happened a couple of times and then things seemed to settle down.

From what I've read online (and there a LOT of horror stories about this particular pill) it can take a while for a proper cycle to return.
I've just come off of it again, about 2.5 weeks ago and got a period on Sunday so I really think it's like a "luck of the draw" type thing.

U must have come off it just after me
I come off it last time and fell pregnant straight away so all this is so frustrating. I've heard of ovulation spotting so not sure if the last 2 days spotting is signs of this? No idea x

It could well be a sign of ovulation, it's so annoying how signs of ovulation and signs of getting a period are so similar!

I had spotting from last Thursday, Friday and Saturday coupled with the most awful cramping pains (did not miss those at all!) and then Sunday AF descended.
I was surprised to be honest, I thought I'd be waiting for ages.

Do you chart your BBT or anything like that? It might help pinpoint if it's ovulation spotting or not.
