Suddenly long cycles

[stellarfox]

Hi I came off the pill Sep last year and had cycles around 35 days average until March and since then I’ve only had 1 period. Has anyone suddenly had long cycles after a number of regular periods? 😔 Any advice?

Just for a bit more info last cycle was 56 days and currently on day 39 and not sure I’ve ovulated. It’s quite a difference in cycle length! The only thing I did differently was come off pregnacare vitamins before I had the long cycles so I’m starting them again now incase there’s something in them that my body is lacking! So frustrating and I’m wondering if I have PCOS now

Hi Stellarfox, how strange! I would start taking the vitamins again too if there is a chance they were making some sort of difference. I'd be interested to know if your cycle length returns to 35 days when you're taking them again.
I am in a vaguely similar boat. I stopped taking the pill last year and for the first while I was 24 days for each cycle. Since a few months ago they've now gone irregular to 21 then 29 then 33 days! I was also worried I had PCOS and I can't really accurately pin point ovulation either. I suppose only time and maybe a Drs trip will tell. Let us know how things go!

Thanks for your response! I’ll let you know if the vitamins help. I’ve booked in a drs appointment for a couple of weeks to see if they can do any tests yet. I hope your cycles stick to around 29/33 days now! I think it can take a long time to adjust after being on contraception. Have you started temping/using opks? I’ve just started this month temping but my temperature is quite up and down!

Yes I do hope it is just adjusting to coming off the pill. Before the pill my cycles were always regular at 35 days so I did hope they were just slowly getting back to that.
Yes I have tried opks but I've only ever once had a postive. Do you use them? Have u noticed any difference now your cycles are different lengths? The month I had a postive opk was actually the month I started taking pregnacare but I stopped them as they made my legs go tingly and numb! I did think maybe I should try a different brand to see if they work better for me.
I started temping this month too and I am seeing the same. Hopefully the overall trend at the end of the month will reveal something to us! Who knew TTC would be so difficult!
