Hi,
Restoration of the normal hormonal pattern may sometimes take a few months after cessation of oral contraceptive treatment. It is common to experience irregular cycles associated with heavy flow. If you can exclude pregnancy, the cause of the back ache could be due to cervicitis, endometritis or orthopedic or renal. You should see a specialist to locate the cause and get treated. You may need a complete physical exam, a trans-vaginal sonogram, blood counts and urinalysis. Hope you find this information useful. Wish you speedy recovery.
