Been On The Pill For 10 Years - Now Trying To Get Pregnant
May 1, 2015
I have been on the pill for 10 years. I recently stopped at the end of January as my husband and I are trying to get pregnant. I had a normal period at the end of January and February. In March I had bleeding and bad cramping 4 days before my period. I went to my doctor and they did a blood test and an ultrasound. The blood test was negative and the ultrasound came back normal. In April, I started a very light bleeding 4 days before my period was due. This lasted 5 days - I only had to wear a liner. My period never came. I took a pregnancy test 3 days after my missed period and it was negative.

I was on the pill for 17 years and I came of it February 2012 because my partner and I are trying for a baby. I've had no periods at all since then. It's been nearly 2 years and still no period! I'm 7 stone 12 pounds, fit and healthy with no family history problems in the reproductive area.
I get terrible spots on my chin and my fertility tests are good. Why haven't I had a period after all this time? I'm getting worried now. I saw a Gynecologist in 2012 and had all the tests etc which came back great. In 2013 I took Clomid and still nothing. I have a very unsympathetic doctor. Can anyone help as to what I should do next? Is anyone in my situation?

My boyfriend and I of 4 years have sex without a condom, but I'm on the birth control pill, mononessa. I take prescription pills that my doctors said would make my birth control less effective, and I had my period Oct. 13- Oct. 17. At some point from the 20th-24th I believe we conceived. I had cramping, my lower back hurts, I'm extremely moody, I'm tired, my breasts/nipples are sore, I have constipation, and my chin is starting to get a few pimples and I have always had clear skin. Last year on Oct. 13 my boyfriend and I found out I was pregnant with our first child and I had a miscarriage Nov. 3. With that pregnancy, I didn't have many symptoms, just mood swings, sore breasts, eating aversions, and heightened sense of smell. I can't take a pregnancy test until the 7th of Nov., but I was wondering if it could be possible. The last time I got pregnant, I was taken off my birth control by my doctors for an idiotic reason, and I got pregnant very quick. It was a week or two after they took me off, I must have gotten pregnant.

I had hormones tested and I am in menopause. I have not had a period in 4 years. Only been off the pill for a month after being on it for a long time. I am told I should still use condoms for birth control, which myself and hubby don't like at all. Chances of getting pregnant may not be likely but can happen. I really prefer to use nothing, but I don't want to end up with a pregnancy at this age. Anyone in their 40's and 50's have gone through this? What was your choice of birth control when the doctor takes you off the pill? Should I not worry about it and use zero protection? Do you think my doctor is being ridiculous?

I have endometriosis and have been on continuous birth control for the past 2 years. In this time I haven't had any bleeding.
However, about a month ago I started spotting, then it turned to bleeding which has required the use of feminine hygiene products every day.
I want to take a break from my birth control and give my body a chance to refresh.. I just want to know - will I remain protected from pregnancy if I take a week off (as I have not at all)?

I started Cerazette about 6 months ago as I'm in my late thirties and my periods were becoming more painful, plus, condoms were started to irritate me. since starting it I had one tiny bleed and that's it, it's a revelation but I am constantly worried that I'm pregnant as it's odd not having periods and I have read that women have got pregnant on this pill, I have always taken it correctly. I may be being silly but if I'm not getting periods does that mean that I am not ovulating either, hence, would not be able to get pregnant and if I was accidentally to get pregnant on the pill then would i still be able to use a pregnancy test whilst still on the pill, i.e. would it show up? I'm just paranoid that after my Husband and I have had sex that a week later I take a test!!! Any ones views on this would really put my mind at rest as I'm considering coming off it just to get a period even though I don't want one!!!

I have had an ulcer now for almost 2 years, I have been to the doctors around 10 times, I was first given mild antacid pills to take for 1 month, they did nothing, I was then given stronger anti acid pills to take for a month, I saw around 2 days towards the end of the pills of no pain, but then it came right back, so I was then given the same pills to take for 2 months, but they done nothing.

I remember I read somewhere that it was not the same to take a 50mg pill than half a 100mg pill.
The thing here is that I usually take a 50mg pill before having sex, I'm used to that dosis, however last time I went to the drugstore I accidentally bought 100mg pills, I am not willing to take one of those since it's the double of what I usually take (and 50mg works fine with me) but I am not sure is by taking half of those pills it would equal a 50 mg one.

I used to be on the pill a while ago and I recently decided to go back on it. I accidently took the sugar pill on my second day of having my period not realising I was meant to start taking the active pills. Can I continue taking the sugar pill or do I start the active pill?

I have been on the combined pill (Gederal) for a couple of years now but my doctor wants to change me to the Mini Pill (Cerelle). My Combined pill is perfect so i don't want to change. I mentioned that i had one migraine with visual disturbance and she explained to me that even one of these migraines is a reason to come off the combined pill. The combined Pill regulated my periods but she explained that this mini pill is now going to make me irregular.

I had 3 kids at 19, and had my tubes tied at 21. I am now 41. My husband and I stopped having sex for 4 years, and recently we started again (just a month ago). I noticed my monthly was a week late in Feb. and have yet to start this month. I was having issue when I urinated and went to get it checked, they gave me something that turned my urine orange. I have been wanting fried egg sandwiches, and noticed this morning that the dog food, (I feed every morning) made me so sick smelling it, then I got cat food on my hand and about vomited. Could it be possible that I am preg? Could this really happen. I have been having mood swings and crying spells as well. Menopause?

I had ovarian cyst on my right ovary, so it has been removed 7 yrs ago, and during that time, since i was out of work, and raising 3 kids is quite tough especially in financial considerations and my ex-hub has no work, i decided to have my other ovary ligated. However, now my fiance and i is craving for 1 more baby. He says he might be incapable already since we have been together for 3 yrs now, and yet i haven't got pregnant. We both would like to know if i still do have a chance of getting pregnant and how?

I am 24 and decided after 4 years being on the depo injection, it was time to give my body a break. My last injection was due on the 4th August 2012 which I didnt have. I started bleeding 28th Dec 2012 (around 4 months after my injection was due). The bleeding was the worst I have ever experienced. I was changing about 7 times a day and it last 32 days without a break and constant heavy bleeding. It finally stopped on 31st Jan. I then started bleeding again 42 days later on 14th March 2013 this year and it lasted for 4 days so I am hoping I am back to normal. Are these periods normal and is it likely the depo is out of my system? The whole time I was on the depo I didn't bleed once! I would like to start trying for a baby and hope that now my periods are back I have high chances of doing so.

Getting pregnant was never a problem for me. Simple, he'd look at me, and bam I have two children. That is until I had the Mirena (5yr) left it in for 7 yrs due to no insurance at that time. I am now 31 and had the mirena out for over a year with no luck getting pregnant. There are times I feel like I am pregnant I get sore breasts, cramping but then I start my period. This month however I am having the same symptoms and my period is late. I knew I was ovulating BC of the egg white like discharge(sorry if tmi)that was about 14 days ago I took a test this morning and result was negative. Maybe i don't understand how all this works completely lol idk but my periods are either at the end of the month or the first of the month. There's no way i could be having symptoms of pregnancy this early and its just my period warning sign. I'm starting to think that leaving the mirena in for 2 years over the time it was supposed to come out and not having periods in 7 years has done damage to my body.

So, I have been diagnosed with Pcos since 2010. I'm 25 years old and my boyfriend and I after 5 years of being together are going to try for a baby.
I don't have periods , probably had about ; since 2010.
My doctor wanted to put me on the pill a couple of years ago but I declined as I wanted a natural period.... Still nothing . How do I know if and when I am ovulating? These are questions I can't ask my doc as he /she always rushes me out the door. My boyfriend and I have had endless amounts of unprotected sex through the years and never fell pregnant.
I know people say ... Yes you can still fall pregnant if you have Pcos ...
