am i doing the right thing?

Ok so we have been trying since sept which coincided with my periods stopping. Im not pregnant as ive taken tests and i havent had a period since sept this year.

I decided to go back on the pill to get my periods back then stop and try again.. is this ok to do? I conceived my daughter after missing the pill. My periods have always been irregular

Any one else in the same situation?? Please advise me

Re: am i doing the right thing?

Hi,

I was in the same boat as you till this month. The last period i had was oct 10th. I went to the dr's to ask what was going on?

she told me that since i was on the pill for so long the hormone was still in my system. It was the the pill that was regulating my menstration. She told ,me that i just had to wait till my body regulated itself. I was getting the symptoms of the onset of menstration at the due dates but apparently i didnt have enough hormones in my system to actually menstrate.

Biggest factor of not menstrating is stress we are still getting over xmas etc etc and not to mention trying to fall pregnant at the same time, the body just doesnt want to know about it right now.

So the best thing for you I feel is just try and relax (hahaha i know very funny isnt it well that is what i was told) and just let your body get into its natural rythem even if it is irregular, which mine is also.

Good luck

Re: am i doing the right thing?

hi there.  i am about to put up some advice on fertility and baby making, based on my own infertility experiences and irregular cycles.  going back on the pill wont make you ovulate.  it will just make you have periods and certainly wont make you fertile.  it is safe to get pregnant accidently when on the pill, as the hormones in the pill do not negatively affect an established pregnancy.  i would suggest staying off the pill and getting to know your body and when it is most fertile.   good luck
