Where the buggery fuck is my period?

[Ceasnake]

I was completely unsure where to post this.
Basically...
DH and I are trying to conceive number 2
I came off the pill on July 29th
I had a period on August 29th (my birthday - what a lovely present!)
since then, nada, zip, nothing
All would be on course except the four pregnancy tests I'd done (the last one yesterday, 2 months after my last period) say 'nay'
It's been a month since I had a period, but according to the tests, I'm not pregnant.
Is it just coming off the pill that's playing silly buggers with my insides? I don't really have many symptoms - I just seem to have got a bit fatter

Yes probably the pill but you could pay a visit to the GP for a chat and reassurance. I would also suggest wearing white trousers at all times!

I came off the POP in June 2010 and had my first AF in May 2011!!! Since then they have been very intermittent!! I would put it down to the pill and your body adjusting to life without it! Depending on how long you were on the pill for can determine how long it takes for AD to return!!!

As northernlurker said, might be worth seeing the doc to put your mind at rest :)

they say that it might take up to a year but to go to the docs after 6 months. I've had one non pill induced period since coming off the pill last august. Yeah thats right, august 2010! I know your pain all too well! Don't worry, I've had a health issue that was unrelated which might have been stopping them, but that was treated and I've been in remission since april. So where the buggery fuck is mine? so if you go to the docs, I'd tell them you've been off the pill for 6 months. might get things started a bit quicker

Oh my goodness... Are you me!!! I came off pill at and of July, af 31st august and not a sausage of an af since!!! Its so rubbish have tested bfn and dine 3 tests, had some awful pains and spent a few nights on sofa with hotwater bottle and still nothing

Nothing helpful to add just wanted to register my awe at only three and four pregnancy tests in such circumstances! Such forbearance!

I'm in the same boat. No period since January. I've been diagnosed as hypothyroid and am on levothryoxine - feeling much better but still no period. They think I've probably got PCOS but aren't sure - I don't have any of the symptoms apart from the amenorrhea and my hormone levels don't fit with it. Aaaargh.

I've no useful words of advice but just wanted to say I love the phrase 'buggery fuck'. Good luck. (A poem.)

I think amonster it's because we haven't been ttc for the past 2 months so I know I can be and don't want to waste money/hope thinking I might be. Its annoying tho as now ttc and still no af....! Buggary fuck!!!

I think I have found my af- it will be arriving in roughly 9 month along with a little baby. fingers crossed it's the same news for you

Can I join this thread af has gone AWOL again! I thought I had got a positive opk on the 14 so expected af on the 26/27 oct but nothing except really bad period pains and now they have gone and still got bfn! I it been bout 6 months since I came of the pill.
Congratulations clandy

I'm with you on this too.....it'll be six months this month for me since I came off the pill and still no AF so there the buggery fuck is my period??!!! (think I'm gonna use that phrase more often as time goes on!)

Geez, sorry guys, I had no idea so many people had replied. You were probably all sat there saying ?where the buggery fuck is the OP??

Well, still no period so I?m off to the docs tomorrow.

Only four tests done because, quite frankly, they cost a bloody fortune! Easy to have forbearance when one is being tight thrifty

Oh, and Clandy - spooky! And congratulations!

I have had af since coming off the pill just they have been 38,29,58 and 28, I am now on day 35 it just so frustrating!!

Just had to update you all...

Went to docs today, told story (omitting words 'where the buggery fuck is my period?'), booked blood test to check hormone levels for Monday, if those came back clear, advice was then to wait a bit and then try Clomid.

Got home tonight, though 'well, what the hell', peed on my last pregnancy test and...... you've guessed it... pregnant

Doctors, eh? What do they know?

And Clandy, you are clearly my long lost soul sister!

Oh bugger fuck!! Congratulations any guesses how far along you are?? I will ask my mum if I was actually a twin....!

Ha ha as if! Congratulations!!!

Been lurking, congratulations to ceasnake and clandy!

Thanks guys. I reckon I'm about 6 weeks gone but to be honest, dating from my last period, it could be more than that.

The test said 3+ weeks so that means, I think, about 5 weeks + - however this is the same type of test that a week ago told me I was NOT pregnant

Hurray, though!

Congratulations!!!!

Another congratulations!
