Hi everyone im new here. Im 23 and ive been on the cilest pill for almost 6 years. I finished my pill packet and had a withdrawal bleed on 8th of this month and as we are TTC i obviously didnt restart the pill. The past few days ive been getting AWFUL symptoms that ive never had in my life constant nausea, cant bear to look at food never mind eat it, im spaced out and dizzy all i want to do is sleep and lie down. Im also so bloated which has never been normal for me. It doesnt feel like im ill with a bug or anything. Ive taken an ovulation test yesterday morning to see if it is that causing it but it was negative. Im just so tired and emotional i hate feeling and being sick! Me and my partner do have sex around twice a day (obviously unprotected as we are TTC) which is normal for us and he is 26.

Has this happened to anyone else coming off the pill and how long does it last for?? Its getting me down now. The sickness seemed to settle last night but i had a lot of sharp pelvic pain left and right and watery discharge.

Thank you xxx

And exactly what relevance is it to your post that you have sex twice a day? Grin

Because i wouldnt have missed my ovulation day if it had happened early because i dont know my cycles yet

If you've only been off the pill for a couple of weeks it sounds more like a sickness bug and it's just a coincidence.
Not sure what you meant by watery but fertile discharge is clear and stretchy like egg white. If it's like that then you could be getting ready to ovulate.

So you have only been off the pill for 8 days? I think Storm is right you must have a bug. Good luck with TTC.

Thanks for your reply i did think a sickness bug but when i press on my stomach theres no pain there its really really low down and if i press the pain gets worse and im sick 😔

I felt ill for about 2 months after stopping the pill. It takes a while for your body to adjust.

If you are sick after pressing on your abdomen I would probably go to the doctor.

Aside from that, it can take a long time for things to regulate after coming off pill-6 months or more. It can also be masking other conditions. It might not take that long for you but worth keeping in mind.

Hello I'm 25 and I came off the pill 2 years ago after being on it for over 6 years and i'm still not back to normal Sad

Now getting serious with TTC, ordered lots of OV tests and PG tests, also got a basal thermometer on it's way & regular appts with my DR, blood tests and scans coming up. Best of luck to you. Xx
