Does Quitting Birth Control Cause Bloating And Diarrhea?

Stopped taking birth control about two months ago. Had a really heavy period with severe cramping, but haven t had another. I have had sex, but always protected (with condom). I ve had cramping, bloating, diarrhea, sore breasts, and many other odd symptoms. Is this normal after quitting birth control?

Hello,

Such symptoms are normal and expected after stopping birth control. It will subside in a few cycles. Take a home pregnancy test as well to rule out pregnancy.

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