I just stopped tri cyclen lo on May 13th but I stopped midpack ( I was on tri cyclen lo for 2 1/2 years, then depo for 3 1/2 years, then nuvaring for 6 months, then back to tricyclen lo for 6 months). I had my withdrawal bleed on May 16th-18th (very light). I had bad withdrawal symptoms for the first week: Cramps, Hot Flashes, Mood Swings, Acne etc. but after the first week nothing. I'm only 2 1/2 weeks off so I'll update when I get my first AF.
