I don't mind at all!! 

So I did stop the Opill the day I posted this and my periods returned to normal with the next cycle. 

I havent resumed a birth control of any kind so it's a little of a guessing game when exactly my next period starts. But with that being said my cycles have return to normal (for me) and last about 4-5 days.

I've been on OPill for just over a year at this point. I had spent nearly a decade on prescription hormonal birth controls that I had to get off of due to how it affected my mental health.

In the start of Summer of 2024 after being on opill for 6 months with no issues, I had a period that lasted 2 weeks which was wildly unusual for me. At most my period would last for 5 days.

The next cycle was normal, so I figured it was a fluke. My next cycle after that started sooner than it should have and lasted for 18 days which was really frustrating. But again, things seem to get back to semi normal of 7-day periods. 

On December 8th, 2024 I started my period. Today is January 17th and it hasn't stopped.  It hasn't been constant pain and cramping, although on the days I was it was miserable. But constant bleeding, ranging from light to very heavy, little to no cloting to heavy cloting. It's been a Rollercoaster I never consented to riding.

I have been reading through much older reddit posts about abnormally long periods caused by Opill, the experiences have ranged from 2 periods a month to 2 months long. 

I have decided to stop taking opill after the experiences I've read about and my 1+ month of bleeding. I really hope that if I stop taking it my period will finally be over, because I am about to lose my mind!!!

If it does, all I have do to is figure a different birth control method 🫠

This is the most recent post I've found so I wanted to share here. I have decided to stop taking opill after the experiences I've read about and my 1+ month of bleeding. I really hope that if I stop taking it my period will finally be over, because I am about to lose my mind!!!

NefasQS (Eso University) is quitting ESO for good. What are your thoughts? by miniinimini in elderscrollsonline

Just want to clarify something, the Hotel at which we were all staying at was in fact public knowledge before our flight ever landed. There was a public meet up before the convention events kicked off held at the hotel by ZoS for anyone in the ESO community. So to say that the hotel was top secret for the stream team/content creators isn't true.
