When Will I Get Periods After Stopping Marvelon?

Hello,
I'm 34 and have stopped taking the pill (Marvelon) as I'm planning to try for a baby. I've been on the pill since I was 15. I finished the last packet 4 weeks ago, and had a period immediately, which finished 3 weeks ago. Can you tell me how long I can expect to wait before getting my first 'real' period? I'm taking multivitamins, Maca root tablets, and folic acid.
We're currently using condoms as I'd like to have a 'real' period before trying to get pregnant.
Thank you so much
