Anyone Else Having These Problems? Posted: 01-22-07 18:02pm
I am 27 y.O. And ttc since june when I
went off the bcp (i was on it for 8 yrs).
My cycles are irregular - the only pattern
I see is one month it's 30 days, the next
it's 40.
I am now cd 45 and no period yet. I had 3
days of light brown spotting at day 36
with lots of cm (which I don't usually
see). I did a hpt at day 40, and it was
negative.
Were those 3 days of spotting my
period?????

Still No Period Posted: 02-04-07 21:48pm
Just wanted to let you know that it is now
day 53 and still no period. I haven't
tested again to see if i'm pregnant - got
tired of wasting money on the tests. Got
a couple free ones from work today, so I
don't know if I should test now or wait a
bit longer in case those few days of
spotting I had before was my period.

Shortgeek is right you should call your dr
& maybe do a blood test to conform.
You could very well be preg
good luck

Hi! Yes, call the doctor to see if you
can get in for an app't. I was on the
pill for over 13 years and had the same
problems as you. My af's were about 51
days apart or so, but he did tell me that
it can take some women an average of 6
months or more to regulate after coming
off the bc pill. My af's never did end up
becoming regular, but I did finally get my
bfp in late december, so hang in there, it
can happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had the same problem I cam off bc in may
and have had two very long cycles since
then, 21, 34,61,33, 114, don't give up
hope yet you could be pregnant or still
regulating. I would wait a week since
your last test and then test again. When
I went 114 days I tested every 2 weeks
for a month and a half and then swiched to
every month.

Testes Again Today..... Posted: 02-05-07 13:03pm
Well I tested again today, and it was
negative. I went to the doctor a few
weeks ago and asked for a referal to a
gynecologist. He wasn't going to do it at
first because he told me it could take up
to a year of ttc. But I told him that my
cycles weren't regular, so eventually he
agreed to write me the referal. So far I
haven't heard anything about an
appointment yet.
The most frustrating part is that I don't
know if I have ovulated - especially when
the cycle is so long - will I only ovulate
once before my period comes? Do you still
ovulate even though no af came?

If you get an af, then you have ovulated.
If your not getting your af, then most
likely, ovulation has not occured. Once
your body does ovulate, af usually comes
within 14 days after.
I really wouldn't worry too much just yet.
It does take some time for some people
(and you are probably one of them!) to
regulate. Like I said, after 6 months, my
af's were atill not regular, but doctor
wasn't going to refer me to anyone until
month 7 or 8 at least.
I would start to take your temperature
each morning with a basal temp and track
your cm. This way you can start to
setermine if you are ovulating on your
own. I think this may help you, it did
for me!!!!!
Good luck!

I've tried tracking my temps, but I work
shift work so it wasn't very accurate. I
am tracking my cm.....Sometimes that is
hard too because I don't notice any. But
i'm in luck today!!
Anyways, just want to thank everyone for
their support!
