    joey,
    When I used these I found that if I wasn't pregnant and stopped them, AF would show up anything from 1 to 3 days later. Usually I would get 1 clear day, then maybe a coulpe days with light brownish spotting and then the next day AF would come as normal.
    Here's hoping AF doesn't show up at all for you the next cycle.
    Good luck.
    Debbie

    Hey there Joey,

    Some months my AF arrived before I stoppped the pessaries but last month it was 2 days after I stoppped them. Hope she's not too far away for you!

    Thanks Meg's Mum.

    How often were you using them? I have the 200mg ones, using every 12 hours approx (before sleep and again before I get up in the morning).

    I hope she comes to visit soon. It's good news that sometimes yours came before you stopped taking them. So perhaps it won't affect me as much as I thought!

    Joey,

    I was using the highest dose ones - 400mg I think?? Sorry I don't have any left here now that I can check, I'm just relying on my dodgy memory I was using 2 a day, 1 in the morning and one the evening the months where AF arrived before I stopped. The month she arrived after I stopped I was on 3 a day - had a low CD21 prog that month so we upped the dose. HTH and hope AF has arrived for you! She has for me
