How long did it take people to conceive after coming off the pill cerelle?
I know everyone's different but would be interesting to see :)

Hi Dangle

I conceived within 2 weeks of coming of the pill! I must admit, I was shocked but very happy. Unfortunately it ended in MC at 6wks but then I conceived again within 2 cycles and went full term with DD. Good luck! X

About 3 weeks (never had a real period) and was a healthy pregnancy and baby. From what I can tell some people it makes you uber fertile and for others takes months and months to get cycles back, both scenarios seem to be normal.

3 weeks not long at all! Bet that was a shock lol! I know everyone says just relax and enjoy it ect but the suspense is killing me already 😂

3 months off the pill but 1 month trying (used condoms the other 2 months). I started taking folic acid 3 months before trying as that is the guidelines.

Interested in the replies too. I've been off cerelle 1 week and hoping for AF soon so I can have a better clue of my cycles. DTD just for fun & practice at the moment. Although sounds like if I'm a lucky one it could happen sooner than I thought. (Although I highly doubt I'll be lucky lol)

I'm going to get some folic acid this weekend :)
Mouselove lol at you getting your practice in! Wonder when AF will arrive you'll have to keep me posted. I never used to get AF on cerelle but recently had a few :/

Hi Dangle
I started taking folic acid as soon as we decided to try, i think it's wise and gives you a head start.

Dangle I was on mycrogynon for 11 years, with regular (to the hour) AF and then Cerelle for the last year with no AF at all. Still no AF now but I'm not panicking this first month off the pill. Ill probably start to worry cycle 2.

No it may take a while to be back on track might it.
I've just been and bought my folic acid :) x
