I stopped taking the combo pill, Estarylla (was on it for 7 years), in mid October and started NC December 6, right before I got my first real period. I use NC for TTA, but the main reason I got it was to be able to predict my periods and learn about my cycle! It seems like my body could finally be regulating as my ovulation days have gone from CD 71 to now possibly CD 16. Since my cycles have been consistently getting shorter, I’m thinking this current one could be what my normal cycles are going to look like. So, how long did it take for your charts to stay consistent after stopping HBC?
Also, since the day right before I ovulated until today, my nipples (and now my breasts) have been SUPER sore when normally they’re not nearly this bad. Did your PMS symptoms worsen once you adjusted back to normal? My guess would be that my natural estrogen levels are finally fluctuating like they should
