I just had mine removed three weeks ago. The only thing I asked about was how long we should wait before it was safe to TTC. She said I could try right away because many of her patients are able to get pregnant within the first cycle. However, we are planning to wait until August so I can try to figure out my cycles through temping and charting.
It only took a few seconds to remove it. She told me to start taking a PNV right away and that she hoped to see me back in there soon with a BFP. That was about it. I had already learned quite a bit through this board and reading TCOYF so there really wasn't anything else I wanted to ask. Best of luck to you!
Married 7.12.08 | Our first blessing arrived 7.19.12 | #1's BFP Chart
Expecting our second little blessing 1.6.15|#2's BFP Chart
Thanks Teacher! I hope you get your BFP when you are ready! I think we are going to wait to start in the winter, just to get regular again. Im kind of nervous though because Ive heard that you should have sex 7 days prior to your appt.as it can lead to pregnancy right away. My doc didnt tell me this, I mean if that does happen we will be thrilled but I would like my body to get back to normal first like you said. But we have had sex like 4 times the past week! Eek! haha We will see...it tooks us a little over a year the first time so that would be a miracle if that happened!

Ahh OOPS! That was supposed to say "shouldNT" have sex a week prior because it can lead to pregnancy!!! LOL That was a typo!
That still doesn't make sense. Sperm live at best 5 days (in a perfect world) an egg maybe 24 hours and that is assuming you are at the point where you'd maybe O.
That is, IMHO, horrible advice to give out...

I just got mine out about a week ago. I did ask about when it would be ok to TTC, he said anytime.
I did hold off on any sex the week beforehand just in case
