Question: My last period was around Memorial Day, but I also had some weird spotting about a week after that (week of XXXXXXX 5th). The spotting was darker, and not as heavy (not enough to use a tampon) than my typical periods, but it lasted for most of the week. I started birth control pills about a month before that (in April). I assumed the spotting was because of the pills, since that's listed as a common side affect. The guy I've been seeing had a vasectomy a few years ago and he's the only person I've been sexually active with recently, so I didn't really see a need for the pills and stopped them. It's been about 6 weeks since my last period & about 4 since the spotting. I took a couple early pregnancy tests that were negative. I know the odds of getting pregnant after a vasectomy are really low, and we usually use condoms also. It shouldn't be possible, but could I still be pregnant? Or am I just off schedule from the pills?

The spotting lasted about a week. That was about a month ago. It's been about 6 weeks since my last real period. When should I expect it to start back on a normal schedule?
