    advise please?

    Hi all, i've just signed up to the forum and not doing everything i can for ttc but not trying to prevent it either... had one depo shot in october (just to prevent a/f at our wedding) so it ran out just on new years. I know it takes a while to get things back into gear (i was on it for 1 year in 06 and it took about 15 months to get a/f back) but last couple of days i've been tired and teary, crampy, peeing heaps and today my morning cuppa tea tasted like a tin can and i spent the afternoon being sick.

    I dont know if my body's even working properley again yet, or if it is, how can i find out? just took a home test and it was neg, but how do i tell if it was too soon to test??

    thanks, and good luck to everyone!

    Hi little mrs - welcome

    When I had depo years and years ago, it took 12 months for af (period) to re appear. .

    The best way to go would be to get a blood test at your doctors and you will know either way...

    Good luck, and let us know how you go sweets

    You could start charting, and also ask your Doc for a progesterone test to see where you are up to in your cycle. TTC can take ages, especially after contraception like Depo. Unfortunately it's a waiting game.

    Best of luck and I hope that it all goes smoothly (and fast!) for you.
