I've come off cerezze 4 weeks ago Thursday since then I've had my withdrawal bleed which came on a day after I stopped it lasted 4/5 Days I had nothing for 3 days after that them had brown discharge spotting on and off since then, until last week I properly got my monthly period which only finished yday :) I'm gona TTC as much as I can and hope to God I don't have anymore spotting only thing I wanna see is implantation bleeding :P
I don't understand why u haven't got anything a few people on it SAY it takes months to go back to normal hopefully u get normal cycles soon

Hey everyone!

I came off cerazette 4 weeks ago on Sunday. Still no bleeding whatsoever. Although I know this is tmi but I have just started to have more cm in the last few days!

Just wondered, how would I know how long my cycle is and when I am more likely to ovulate with no period? I have opk sticks but don't want to waste them silly nilly! xxx

Hi everyone!

Good luck tomorrow GX such an exciting time for you!

I'm now on CD 40 so don't really know what's happening but keeping FX for a BFP anyway! Its only my second cycle since coming off the pill in Sept first was CD 64.

Hope you get a BFP OPT soon Tiny

Xx

Flamingo Glad to hear that AF has made an appearance, fingers crossed for a shorter cycle this time.

First fx for a shorter cycle for you too.

Cookie, Chapman good luck for you TWW's!! Fingers crossed for you. When will you be due to test?

Tiny welcome! Definitely sounds like EWCM so sounds like things are starting to regulate for you, I was on cerazette and I got my period back after 35 days which I think is pretty good so good luck to you. You may even have been lucky and caught it!!

GX how long till your scan?

Cd10 for me and nothing interesting happening, other than I have a bout of thrush which is very annoying, haven't had it for ages so hoping it clears up quickly before I get my peak, don't want to have to miss it for that.
In other news I've been doing a bit of reading on sperm friendly lubes (after not liking preseed - dries up & goes sticky yuck!) and found a medical study that looked at mineral oil and olive oil and found that baby oil had no effect on sperm (Same as preseed) so will be trying that this time around. What does everyone else use of are you lucky enough not to need it?

I don't understand these OKS lol

Gx hello! Fingers crossed all is good at the scan, its a very exciting time, looking forward to seeing piccies! I did another OPK yesterday and it is still very negative but I have hope! I'm currently on CD21 of unknown number probably longer than 39 days but hopefully shorter than 100! On a 39 day cycle I am in theory fertile from tomorrow for a few days so I might try some more OPKs :) x

cookie you have given me hope today l. I'm using the same OPK as you and so far have only had an empty circle! Two months of testing and not had a positive OPK yet

Thank you first for explaining!

Flamingo- great news AF arrived , hope ur cu Les r getting shorter ! I took the centrum multivitamin and folic acid too , don't know if they helped but my cycles shortens X
Chapmen , sounds like u had an amazing time away !!
Cookie - woohoo , hope uv caught this month ! TWW for u now eeeek! Lol X

Sunny - how r u doing ? X
Shakate - glad AF is coming to an end , have u thought about using OPKs ? I found them very helpful as they help u know how long ur cycle will b (AF 14 days after +opk) the long cycles really r a pain in the ass ! X
Yvonne and tiny how r u doing today ?
Happy new year btw everyone !
Iv got my 12 week scan tomorrow , very nervous will post a pic when I get back , time has been dragging by waiting and waiting , hope things will speed up ! Xx

Hey everyone my period has lightening down a good bit as it's day 5 so almost finished how would I know if everything is back to normal and when should I test again?

Flamingo, Great news on AF! Fingers crossed for a shorter cycle 2!

Happy new year everyone!
Lots of messages to catch up on!
tinyemmy hope AF comes soon for you. I think it is your body getting used to not having the pill, and readjusting to work without it now.
firstgo hope your cycles shorten for you. It's frustrating that we can't know what's going on in our own bodies. It's that control thing that bothers me, I'm a planner so not knowing what my.own body is doing drives me up the wall!!
cookie I take it the smiley means you had your OV peak?! Woo! Hopefully you caught it, fx for Bfp for you later this month then.
chapman sounds like you had a wonderful time away, now it's just the waiting game for you! Fx for you
first hopefully this cycle is shorter for you. I was going a bit mad waiting for my AF to turn up, and I didnt even go as long as 77days. Seems strange hoping to get AF!! Ive hated it for the whole of my life up until the last two months where i have been desperate to see it!!
GX hope you are doing well

So where I'm at... After a 58 day cycle, finally AF has made an appearance. I am so happy it's ridiculous! I knew it would happen but it's so hard to be patient when you have no idea what's going on in there. I had no symptoms this time, no cramps on lead up, no headache or anything. It's a definite bleed now as well, two weeks ago I had spotting which I knew wasn't a period, but confused me a bit. I am not ttc until March but that's no so far away now that we are in 2016. All Christmas I was thinking to myself, hopefully, this time next year I will have a bump! So I am now on my 2nd cycle after coming off cerazette (last pill taken 5th nov) so now on CD2.

It does seem different for everyone coming off the pill. I'm just taking centrum pre conception multivitamins with folic acid. Hopefully my body finds its natural rhythm quickly so my cycles get shorter... But who knows!

Thank you Belle and Yvonne. Yes, I did wonder if it was just undoing what Cerazette had done in terms of thickening up the cervix. Either way definitely a step in the right direction. Fingers crossed AF comes soon :)

Definitely a positive sign things are getting back to normal post pill anyway x

Hey Tiny,
Just saw your message and wanted to reply! I stopped my pill back in May and I had exactly the same thing! Probably not what you want to hear but I'm not convinced it was me ovulating I think it was just everything starting to work again down there. But you never know! But once that cycle finished (48 days) my next cycle went straight down to 33 days and I'm pretty sure that's when I started ovulating! Good luck, fx for you all xx

Definitely no wee for a while but I had quite a bit to drink by my standards. I will try again with the OPK tomorrow :)

Sounds definitely like EWCM! I know the OPK are quiet sensitive did you limit your fluid intake and no wee for a few hours before? X

Happy New Year! I'm now on day 19 after stopping Cerazette and I had (tmi) what can only be described as a massive blob of jelly like substance. I don't know if this is EWCM or just something that happens after coming off the pill? I've dtd just in case and I did an OPK but it was negative. Has anyone else experienced this? Let's hope for a fruitful and fertile 2016!

cookie no I haven't tried agnus casts. I'm a medic and though i am willing to use OPKs and look for EWCM I am a little bit reluctant to try things that i would tell my own patients there is no good evidence for using. That doesn't mean necessarily that it doesn't work, but I can't find any good trials that have been done to prove it. Having said all that, I may end up trying it if they don't settle soon. Cycles have been 39, 33, 49 and then 77 days so far since stopping.

How long did your cycles take to regulate?

That's exciting Cookie fx for you!! I'm now on CD 38 my cycle still not right from the pill! I think AF is due on Fri as that will be two weeks from when I had EWCM so keeping everything crossed for a BFP but not having any signs such as sore boobs so it will probably be AF again for me!

I've bought Agnus Cactus so going to try this next cycle to try and get them down to 28days.

I was so busy over Xmas it took my mind of things but now it's over I'm back to not being able to think about anything else

Fingers crossed for some more BFP soon xxx

Happy new year to you New Girl! How are you doing? I would like to be more organised with my temps too but I feel my sleep pattern can be so erratic at times that my temp results wouldn't be accurate. My CB worked today thank goodness! Held it in the pot a while longer so maybe that helped. Feeling slightly nervous now as I approach my tww xx

Aww Chapman, I'm so glad you had a fabulous time in NYC! Was this your first time over there? I've always fancied going. I just love the states! Fx for you! It only takes one round of dtd for one to catch First, I hope your cycle shortens. I was exactly the same as you a couple of months ago but now I think I'm regulating into a cycle between 33-37 days. Have you tried Agnus Castus? I really feel it's helped me immensely! Since taking it once a day my cycles have gone down from 55 days to 34 days!

Well today someone will have to peel me from the ceiling. After having completely negative OPKs on the clear blue digital tests since last sun, this wee guy made an appearance this morning not even a flashing one but a static smiley! I feel like it's my bfp lol! Was feeling so down about things all week. We dtd last night and going to try and pounce of DH tonight too. Feeling a bit more hopeful xx

And Sophie, huge congratulations!! Amazing news for you!

Hi everyone! Happy new year to you. CD8 for me so going to start testing in a couple of days, waiting for Ov again. Going to be a bit better with my temps this cycle.

Cookie that's odd, I have got high and peak readings from CB using them with FMU as per the instructions, I think you can have a low LH reading all the way through your cycle which could be what the IC's are picking up? Are you dipping the CB's or using them in stream? Maybe they're not getting enough urine to pick up a reading? I always used them in stream.

Chapman hope you had a great time in NY! No matter if you didn't DTD that much so long as you had a good time.

Yvonne, First, GX, how are all you ladies doing?

cn I am on cycle 3, CD9. Praying for a vaguely normal length cycle this time! 77 days drove me nuts! I would be delighted with anything in the 30s!!! I have started cheap opks already this cycle. Feel they give me a bit of control (celebrated like crazy when I got a positive on cd62 and 63) and some idea when AF might come!!!
