Getting fed up now - 40 days after withdrawal bleed & no AF
I came of the pill at the beginning of Feb and am now 40 days after my withdrawal bleed and no sign of AF
Getting so fed up now, wasn't sure what I was expecting but it wasn't this, lol.
I had very, very strange mucus happening (TMI sorry) and am hoping that was a sign that I've ovulated. I started taking Agnus Castus and Starflower oil last Saturday in a bid to try and get things moving so just trying to stay patient and not get stressed but it's not easy/
Anybody else in this position?

I came off my pill 13 Feb and still nothing since a withdrawal bleed on the 16th??? I'm getting quite down about it now as I don't have a clue where I am on a cycle
Getting so down as I just assumed (naively I guess!!) that things would just sort themselves out. I spoke to a nurse yesterday and she was just useless! She just said stress could be a factor but mostly she just stared at me blankly...
When are you looking to TTC? We're getting married on 1st May and looking to start straight after that.
I'd have come off it months ago if I'd known it would have been like this!
Keep smiling...
Theres 3 of us in my due in who fell straight from the pill so may be worth a test just to see?
A & bump, 22+3 xx
Well worth a test just to see?
We are now ttc #2. I came off the pill on Monday 15th March. Started my withdrawel bleed on the 17th so you could say im on CD8. We are just going to crack on with ttc. I will prob wait 40 days and if no AF then will test.
Good luck.xx
Hope yours comes quickly and then bfp to follow
Fingers crossed for something positive for you, let me know how you get on
for blood tests to check hormones, loads of other buts and also my thyroid. So have booked in for 7th April and then get results week later. She said that it is normal and I shouldn't worry but would get ball rolling doing the check which I'm really pleased about.
Fingers crossed for everyone x
good luck ttc xx
I came off BCP 2nd August and I've had one AF since!! Been diagnosed now with PCOS and being referred cos it looks like I won't be able to get pg without a bit of help. It's so hard to be patient however long it's been so I hope something happens for you soon xx
This forum is great because it's so easy to feel completely lost with all this and it's so reassuring to hear you're not alone and all these great success stories!
Thanks
I was happy my first after coming off pill arrived on saturday only 1 week overdue am hoping now for a few more regular ones and a nice summer in our new home with lots of bbqs and wine before we start ttc in august. good luck to everyone xx
Will keep my fingers crossed for you in the summer
I came off the yasmin pill at the end of feb, had my withdrawel bleed pretty much straight away and i've just started my af for this month. Had some strange symptoms too but I think its mostly to do with forgetting what it's like to have a regular af. Going to see doc tomorrow just to make sure - hope you get back to normal soon xx
any advice?!
do i need to do another test?
so annoying!
I'm trying not to worry but can't help but think it will never happen!!
Good luck to everyone
It's horrible because if you're anything like I was I was just on an emotional rollercoaster. Would go through periods where I pretended I was ok and trying not to think about it to days just obsessing about it and not being able to think of anything else.
You still trying the agnus castus? I'm sure that's what (finally sorted me out). Was taking 2 twice a day along with the starflower oil. Have you tried that VVV?
If things have settled down then AF is due to appear in just under 2 weeks so it's the whole rollercoaster again.
It would be so much easier to be a bloke - they get away so lightly!!!
Have you been monitoring your temp Alison? I know my friend did that religiously for a while as well to try and get as much of an idea as possible?
Keep smiling guys and keep the faith that things will happen soon, it's about all we can do x
