TTC after 35

New to board!

Hello Ladies! I'm a 37 year old mom to a 2 year old...currently in the process of convincing my hubby that we should TTC :-)

I wanted to share my story and see if anyone else has a smiliar medical history with their cycles? I've always had very regular periods but last year I didn't get my period for almost 6 months and finally went in to see my OB. He did a pelvic exam but before he could order further testing, the very next day I had an emergency appendectomy! For some reason, this made my period return for 5 months and then it stopped again :-/ So I gave it a few more months and am going back to the OB in a couple of weeks.

Has anyone else had irregular periods in their late 30's but was able to conceive? I also have hypothyrpidism but I'm under medication.
