hi everyone. This is my first post. My husband and i are planning on getting pregnant and hopefully very soon! For the last three months i have been taking pre conception supplements to prepare and also had a Rubella booster. I just have a question which may sound stupid but i don't have anyone else i can really ask. I have been on the pill for the last five years. Found out last September i have endometriosis. The reason i first went on the pill was due to bad stomach cramps each month when i would vomit (sorry for the detail) and be quite sick. My cycle was always all over the place and i never knew when i would be getting my period. The pill got me into a regular cycle and helped with the pain a little bit. I also skipped my period regularly by not taking the sugar pills as this helped with the pain and also stops the endo from growing back. Anyway, my question is: When do i start counting my cycle? I went off the pill last Thursday after skipping my period with the pill by taking it for six days. I got my period this Wednesday. Do i start counting from the first day of my period or when my period finishes. What if my periods go all irregular again as i have stopped the pill? How would i count for when i am ovulating. Very sorry for asking all these basic questions. Thanks in advance for your answers.
