I'm hoping one of you clever lovely ladies might be able to help advise... Sorry this is such a long post but I have tried to give as much info as possible!
I came off the pill at New Year so I could start TTC with hubby, and have not had a period since January (which was just the normal withdrawal bleed). Since then, nothing at all.
I was on Dianette which I was on originally for my skin, and then stayed on because other pills gave me migraines.
I'm 29, eat healthily and take moderate exercise. I weigh 9 stone and I'm 5 foot 6". I have been taking Pregnacare since October but am not taking any other supplements. I had a short course of acupuncture in January to try and kick start things after coming off the pill.
I went to the GP in March who said to relax, be patient and hope that things settle down and if still nothing in June then to go back. She also said to do a test each month just in case. Did one today and it was a BFN. Well, here we are in June and still no periods (although I have had skin flare ups over the last few months and some mood swings, all of which is making me worry about PCOS).
I want to get on with TTC and so I'm making an appointment to go back to the GP but I'm not sure what tests I should ask for. Having read though some other threads it seems like some tests have to be done at a certain point in your cycle (and at well over 100+ days as at right now I'm thinking eeeek! )
Can anyone help me with suggestions as to what tests I should be asking the GP for? Thanks!
PS - I have been on 2 holidays since Christmas (kept thinking it'd be sods law my period would turn up while I was away... but nope!)
