Month 8 of TTC with only 2 periods - anyone else similar?

Im 31 1/2 I gave up my pill in January and ended up going to my doctor in April because my periods had not returned. I lied to my doc (naughty I know) and said I'd given up the pill in November so I could say I'd been off it for 6 months. She did a blood test but told me that because I wasn't having a monthly cycle that it didn't really tell her anything although I think it ruled out PCOS.

She then asked me if I would mind leaving it until around August before coming back to see if my periods had returned.

Since then I had one period in June then 43 days later another one. I have been using OPKk regularly but not every day but I don't think I'm ovulating despite the 2 periods and I don't feel optimistic that the 2 periods meant anything. Its now 36 days since my last period ended and nothing has happened.

I am about 2 stone overweight and worried this could be causing me problems. I know I am rambling but I have wound myself up this morning and just wondered if anyone else has been going through something similar to the above?

I am planning on going back to docs next month and wonder what might be in store.

Hi, I'd go back to your doc and demand a referral so this can be investigated properly. I don't know how she's ruled out pcos on the basis of a blood test, you need a scan to check if it's pcos or not. I've got pcos and it sounds to me as if you have some of the obvious symptoms (irregular periods and being overweight).

There's a website called Verity which is a charity set up to provide info about pcos which you might find helpful.

Good luck!

Thanks I will check out the website and definitely will set up an appointment with doc asap.
