Im brand new to this forum thingy, the whole 'TTC' thing as well. I went off the pill 8 weeks ago in readiness for becoming PG and my periods have not returned yet. Every now and then I feel like i am PMTing but nothing ever comes!! Its driving me mad! I am going to see DR this week to see if I need to be tested for OV problems. I hope its all ok and im just freaking out over nothing. Does anyone know the procedure for testing for OV? Do you go see a specialist for ultrasound? If Im not OVing how long until they would put me on something like Clomid?? And if you go on Clomid does this delay your true cycle even longer?

Becky- it's probably just normal as frustrating as it is. When I went off the pill it took ages for my period to come back and it was irregular until I fell pregnant!
the doc wont put u on clomid or run any other tests unless u have been TTC for a period of 12 months or more.
The pill nearly stuffs up everyones period. Mine took about 6 months to come back but was taken away again by PCOS. Head to ur doc and discuss ur concerns. He will be able to tell u what to do next. More than likley he will tell u to gove urself some more time. Welcome to the TTC circle... as many of us have found out having a baby isnt the easiest task in the world. Took me 2 years to concieve and there are ladies on here that have been trying for much longer than that.
Take it one step at a time darl and things will work out in the end good luck and sending lotsa baby dust ur way!!! xox
It took 8 weeks to get my first AF post pill and then the next was 6 weeks before they settled into a 5 week cycle.
It also took me 12 months all up of TTC with an early loss to conceive my first child.
Some fall into a regular 28 day cycle but because you don't doesn't mean you need to be treated with fertility drugs straight away. They can have some rather serious side effects so shouldn't be taken unless really necessary.
hey becky...it's hard to be patient, hey? i just came off the bcp myself & have only just finished the withdrawal bleed. i so want it all to happen RIGHT NOW but we just have to be patient! the worst bit is, the more stressed we get & the more impatient the longer it will probably take to arrive!
hang in there chick, i'm sure your body will sort itself out soon
TTC - 8 weeks post pill no period..and waiting.
