Hi, I know how you feel. The same thing happened to me! I was on the pill for over 3 yrs and when I stopped my period vanished! It is very normal to miss your period after coming off the pill, especially when you've been on it for awhile. Your body is used to getting it's hormones from the pills so it stops making it's own. Then it takes awhile for your body to realize that it needs to start doing things on it's own again. I didn't get my cycle back for 5 months and it just came back this week. Everything I've read says it can take up to 6 months for your cycle to return to normal after stopping the pill, it all deoends on your body. Remember eveybody is different so there is no way to tell how long it will take for your cycle to come back. Just don't panic, it is perfectly normal, but if you still are nervous there is no harm in calling your doctor for advise or answers. I hope this helps.
