    Pretty common. Your body is adjusting to not having the pill in its system. Your periods will more than likely be off for a good few months.

    I was having spotting on and off for 4 weeks after I stopped the pill. Once I got my first period, it stopped. Just the hormones trying to balance out again. It can take a while though.
