Hi All
I was on the BCP for 10-11 yrs with very litle break. It took us 12 mnths TTC, but I never did any CM or temping etc - more go with the flow and not knowing heaps. My cycles were HUGELY irregular - first AF 14 wks after coming off pill, thren about 10-12 weeks for a couple and finally about 6 weeks... so I was not v likely to get preg!! I also travelled heaps for work and was v stressed... so what were the chances really!!! i was about the start getting 'scientific' about it all when we got preg...
This time around, have just stopped bf and have been on the mini pill...just finished that too... no AF yet so i went to chinese dr (acupuncture and herbs) to get cycle regular and then help TTC. i got my period 1 week after taking herbs... so now looking to regulate then shorten cycle and TTC in the next few mnths. I highly recommend herbs/acupuncture to get things regular and prepare and help with TTC.
FWIW my chinese dr mentioned that being on the pill for a longer time without breaks may help rather than hinder comapred to someone who stops and startsall the time....
