What Causes Irregular Periods Post Withdrawal From Contraceptive Pills?
I m 39 years old. I recently went off the pill, had one period and nothing more for 3 months now. I am not sexually active. Have been having abdominal bloating and distention recently and now both my hips are hurting..especially when getting up and walking. Do I need to worry. Tight on funds so cannot go to the doctor. Please advise what I may be dealing with.

Irregular periods are quite common after withdrawal of contraceptive pills. Don't worry, wait for few months, they your periods will be regular.Finally end with 'Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help". For Follow up questions, end with "If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer.
