I just stopped taking the pill about 1 week ago. I had my period on the 7th of this month and by my calculations should have been ovulating this week, but I started bleeding yesterday. It's really heavy and dark, which I'm not used to. Is this just my body adjusting to being off the pill? if yes, how can I have my period so soon after the last one? Should I go to the doctor?
