Hello ale19,
It’s far more likely that you'll get brownish spotting when coming of continuous birth control pill than immediate full period-like bleeding. That's because the hormones from the pill stop your ovulation and the longer you were on the pill, the more time it takes for your body to start producing its own hormones that will restart your ovulation. Of course, once you start ovulating - which can happen in the first few weeks off the pill - you will start having real periods, since your menstrual cycle will be tied to ovulation.
Wish you all the best,
Nicole
