What Causes Withdrawal Bleed Symptoms?

I lost my birth control in the middle of moving. Even on Ortho Tri Cyclen for ten years. The schedule goes like this: April 8th: Got period April 12th: Period ended; also started new pack April 20th: Lost pill pack so my last pill was taken on April 19th which is the first pill of the second week. Today is May 6th and I have not taken a pill since April 19th. Sexual activity: Unprotected sexual encounters on April 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 28, 29, 30, May 1, 2, and 3rd. I had what I believe is a withdrawal bleed April 24-27 When am I fertile after stopping the pill? Can I ovulate right after stopping? How soon can I ovulate? When should I expect my real period if I m not pregnant?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

Your real menstrual cycle had started after the withdrawal bleeding. After this your ovulation can be between 10th to 16th day of bleeding. Spontaneous ovulation is possible after withdrawal of oral contraceptive. Your natural menstruation should start after 28 to 30 days of withdrawal bleeding and ovulation would be 14 days before expected menstruation date (Everything provided you don't have any menstruation issue).

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
