I got my period on Thursday of last week. This was my first real period after having come off of the pill in August and it came right on time. Cycle days 2 and 3 I'd say were medium, and cycle day 4 was very light (practically spotting.) It was gone yesterday. Then, suddenly, this afternoon *TMI ALERT!* I started spotting, and it's been only brown colored. This has never happened to me before. Is this just because my body is still getting adjusted to no longer being on the pill?

It sounds like thats exactly what your bodies doing. and if its not that then its your body clearing out excess "dead" blood. Which has happened to me before

Good luck on getting your

Thanks ladies! So do you think that this affects ovulation in any way?

I know exactly what you mean - I came off my BCP in July. It's been crazy ever since. With a bleed just 18 days after that - and then 50 days after that - again. It takes a long time to get back into gear. I have had the brown spotting that you are talking about as well. Have you ever used the ovulation sticks? You can get them from Ebay = cheap! Kinda nice to have another source of information - just until your body gets back to normal.
