stopped bc still no af
| Thu, 06-29-2006 - 9:21am |
Hi, I took off the patch on 5/7, started af on 5/10 and haven't had af since... took hpt on 6/18, 6/24, and again yesterday 6/28 all bfn. I know it can take a few months to resume normal af after stopping bc, but I still feel very unsettled and uncertain. I have no idea when/if I O'd and I typically have long cycles.
Part of me feels like I'm pg but my brain keeps saying no way since bfn's. Anyone else in this situation or can anyone tell me from their experience when they started af after stopping bc?
I can't focus on anything until I get af... or bfp but I don't want to keep testing...
Thanks for listening!!!

I just went off BC myself at the beginning of this month. I'm waiting for my AF also...it was actually due this week. I took a HPT test yesterday with and got a negative result. I'm thinking I just tested too soon.
Good luck.
Hi, I called the dr and they wanted me to come in for a blood test... soonest they could get me in is 7/5 because of the holiday weekend, if anyone reads this please send me positive vibes for next week!!!
Thank you for letting me share this with you all! nobody else knows LOL
Hey there! I'm going to try my hardest to wait another week or so to test again. Good luck with your blood test, I hope it's a bfp!!!!
Have a good weekend.
When I went off the pill it took 3 months to get AF. I don't know why doctors don't tell us this beforehand! I wasn't worried about being pregnant because I wasn't sexually active but I was wondering if something was wrong. Turns out that it's normal for it to take awhile for your body to get back to normal.
