Question
My girlfriend got her period on XXXXXXX 6th. She has stopped taking her birthcontrol since then. Could that throw off her cycle, or should she still expect to have her period around july 4th or so.

Hello
Thanks for writing to us
Cycle may become irregular for a month or two after withdrawal from birth control pills
In some females they remain regular
If she has not conceived during this cycle then you can expect her periods on the due date or plus minus one week
Take care
Any further query is most welcome
