Hi - just wanted to add my 2 cents worth! I stopped taking the pill in April after being on it with no periods for about three years (as a hormonal treatment for endo). It took about six weeks for my first AF, which dr said is normal. He suggested waiting at least 2 months before ttc also, and I've read to wait until you have two 'normal' cycles off the pill before trying.
Also, I've used Maybe Baby everyday for about the last three months and have had one day of full ferning in all that time! BT this month confirmed O too (which happened on that one day of full ferning) My dr said the idea behind it is fine (and said CM also does the ferning thing too!). I'm guessing that an awful lot of people (me included) fall into the category of 'those that Maybe Baby isn't suitable for' ie low oestrogen levels etc
I know it's easier said than done, but be patient and good luck!
Im on the same boat as you ReggieB. Im on CD46 and still no period and have had negative HPT's. I was on the pill for about 2.5yrs and stopped taking it about 8 months ago. Been TTC for the last 4 months. I went to the doctor yesterday and im scheduled for a blood test if still no AF by the end of the week.
Wow Grake, good to know im not alone in this though. I went to the docs the other week, he said for me to come back mid feb if AF hasn't come and he would do some tests. I just have no idea why my body hasnt kicked back in, I was always normal before.
I am going to a Acupuncture & Chinese herbalist person this week who specialises in women's health so will see what she says.
Keep me informed on how you go and good luck!
If i get a negative result from the blood test the doctor is going to run some test to check if i am actually ovulating and/or when. Fingers crossed its all good.
Its just fustrating when you dont know exactly what is happening with your own body! (especially because im a control freak)
Let us know what how you go with the herbalist/acupuncture.
