Hi ladies,
I am new here, first post and looking forward to being a part of the Mumsnet community!
I was wondering if I could compare notes and get some advice...
I came off Microgynon 21 day pill after 8 years, started trying right away. Yesterday I had what I think was my first AF. Started with the usual cramps, but got much worse, suddenly my temperature shot up, started sweating profusely, lots of pain, severe diarrhoea, nearly fainted. My colleague said I'd gone yellow. Lasted about an hour. Flow today very light, but bleeding when I started was too much to be spotting.
Is this normal? Never been this bad before. What was your first one like?
I'm worried this could have been an early MC, there's no way of knowing as I never took a test as it was too early. Does anyone know when your cycle starts after coming off the pill? Is Day 1 the first day of your pill period during the pill free week? So confusing! If so my cycle would have been 28 days, but I heard it takes much longer for first AF. Pre-pill cycles were longer than 28d, never the same length.
So, how was it for you???
Main concern is that if this is early MC, do I have to wait a month before trying? I'm 34, husband 39, so we've not really got time to fanny about!
Any thoughts much appreciated xxx
