Intercourse After Stopping Of Birth Control Pills, Did Not Get Periods. Pregnancy Test, Negative. To Be Concerned?
My granddaughter - 21 years old - had been on birth control pills for a number of years and decided to stop about 2 months ago. Has had intercourse but never without male protection. She hasn't had her period for 2 months - has taken pregnancy test and she's not pregnant. Is there usually a period of time before the body readjusts to normalcy?

I think you don't have to worry much right now. The gap to regain periods vary between person to person. It can maximally go upto 6 months.
One problem you have to worry about is the difficulty in a planned pregnancy. I'd advice you to use barrier methods of protection untill your cycles restart.
I hope I've clarified some of your concerns.
