127: 3 Reasons Your Cycle Might Disappear After Stopping Birth Control

In this episode, I'm breaking down 3 big reasons your period can disappear after stopping the pill: why you likely weren't actually ovulating while on it, what "post-birth control amenorrhea" really is (yes, it's a real, documented thing), and why whatever cycle issues you had before birth control often come back — sometimes worse. I'm also sharing my own experience losing my cycle for 9-10 months after coming off the pill, and why giving your body time and the right support matters so much more than rushing straight to IUI or IVF. If you're preparing to try to conceive and currently on birth control, or if your cycle has gone missing since you stopped — this episode will help you understand what's actually happening and why there's a path forward.
