I had brown mucusy discharge and some lie bleeding but only when I wiped. For the past week I have experienced cramping, bloating , gas, headaches , lower body aches (abdomen, hips & upper thighs). Is it possible to be pregnant?

Hi,
After stopping the pills it may take sometime for regularization of the cycles.
But as you had previous 3 regular cycles possibly ovulation might have restarted after stopping the pills.
If you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation there is possibility for pregnancy.
So you better to go for blood test or urine test for pregnancy to find out the possibility.
Take care.
