Trying to Get Pregnant

New here...have a question

So I may sound a little uneducated here but I havent done any research.  My husband is 33 and I am 28 and we have decided to start a family after being married for 3 years now.  I have not taken the pill since my last period ended on March 3.  I did not have a period this week.  I have taken a few pregnancy tests and they are all negative.  Is it normal to miss a period when first off the pill?

Re: New here...have a question

  • Yes.

    If you don't get a period for 60 days call your doctor.

    Good luck!

  • Your cycle can be very out of whack your first few months off the pill.  Typically the advice is to call your doctor once you have gone 60 days without a period.

    Your body is adjusting to regulating it self.  Take another test in a week if you still haven't started your period.

  • It can take a good while your body to get itself back on track.

    When I came off the pill, I had 1 "normal" cycle but then after that I had ones that were as short as 17 days and ones that were as long as 64 days. They were all over the place. Over the course of a year they slowly began to regulate themselves back to normal and a year after I stopped BCP I was back to a fairly normal cycle.

  • Wow!  You guys are quick to respond!  Thanks so much
  • i went like 58 days on my 2nd cycle off back before i was pg with DD. like pp said, wait until 60 days. your body is trying to adjust.
