Re: Period
It's common, when coming off a method of hormonal contraception, for it to take a while for your cycles to come back around and find their "normal" for your body off that medication. Do you have any reason to suspect a potential pregnancy? In other words, since you went off the pill, have you had any intercourse without using a method of reliable contraception properly?

Re: Period
No but i did have sex the same day i started my birth control after my period, we used a condom and we did the water test after to check for holes and nothing but there was white thick discharge, could that have been me discharging?

Re: Period
If the discharge was on the outside of the condom, then it was most likely from you (we can't say for sure, as we weren't there)
