Trying to Get Pregnant

When to test

Okay ladies, I've been on BC for 11 yrs mostly continuously, I only have 3-5 periods per year. We are TTC now and I have no clue about my "natural cycle" at all. I'm going on day 34 of my first cycle off hormones. I'm anxious to get pregnant since I have so many issues during normal AF. How do I know when to test and what's normal after hormones?

Re: When to test

  • It can take several months, sometimes upwards of a year, to regulate after coming off of BC.

    I would:

    -Test once per week until you hit CD 60, get your period, or get a + HPT

    -Get rid of that BUMP ticker.  It is useless anyway, but since you said you are on CD 34 and the ticker says your on cD 4 it is even more worthless...which is hard to believe

  • I've been off BC since 2003 and my "normal" cycle is any where form 29-35 days! I just had a 19dayer last month, 1st month TTC. Go to fertilityfriend.com and sign up for the free account then if you have an iphone you can use the free app that gives you the colors like the VIP account on FF, it doesn't give you full access but it does give you more.... I OPK 2 times  day, 2nd pee and at night, I will PT on the 4th officially, but honestly I bought a bunch off amazon and I have tested 8 DPO and today 9 DPO, not neg but not pos either!

     Do the temping and do the CM, it's the only way I can figure this stuff out!

    YesvKDG is wise.
