Going to the docs?
I'm thinking about going to the doctors about my lack of AF. Came off the pill in April, and no AF since withdrawal bleed two months ago. BFN when I test.
Am I wasting my time though? Have most people been told to give it six months? Be really keen to hear if anyone else has been.
I'm worried I might be underweight and if that's affecting it? I'm five three and weigh about seven stone. But then, if Posh Spice gets pregnant when she's so thin, surely it can't be that?

Every doctor is different i know, but i saw at least 3 different ones and they all said the same "You have to wait another few months to let your body get back to normal"... 2 years later they were still saying it to me, even though i would be in floods of tears.
Good Luck though! x x
Two years? You poor thing. Hope AF pops up soon, or even better, a BFP
Good luck hun x x x

I have a family history of subfertility so I went to docs and he told me to keep trying for 3 more months then come back and he would refer me and thats all on my records.

Also, I am starting to feel a little angry that when I first went on the pill when i was 20 the primary reason was that my cycles were irregular and they put me on the pill to regulate them. I am now worried that there may have been a problem (e.g. PCOS) and it has just been masked by years of being on the pill rather than actually being sorted out. That said my cycles were nothing like as irregular as they are now! They were just more like every 5 weeks and lasting over a week and heavy so hopefully wasn't actually a problem. I'd give anything to be back to having every 5 weeks now even if they were heavy!
And I'd heard that most fertile when just stopped taking story too. Humph, is all I can say!
I'm now starting to wonder, like you, if I've got a problem that has been hidden by the Pill for years.
Best of luck ttc x
If I go, I'll let you know what they say and we can compare notes!
