Don’t think I’m ovulating at all

Hello,

I am TTC for the first time. Came off the pill last August, knew it would take a while to get back to normal cycles but has now been 8 months and I still don’t think I’m ovulating. I’m having irregular cycles anywhere between 35 and 45 days, have been tracking temperature, CM and more recently using OPKs and not getting even a sniff of a temp rise, change in CM or an LH surge. I’m finding it really stressful as I know lots of people who conceived after coming off the pill quickly, whereas I don’t even think I’m ovulating so surely have no chance! I know I have to be TTC for a year in order for the GP to do tests. I’m just starting to lose the faith, surely all the pill hormones must be way out of my body by now so what’s with the irregular cycles? Has anybody spontaneously developed a regular cycle late after stoping the pill like me, or is it a sign that’s there’s something else going on like PCOS? 😕

Thank you

@torsz thank you for your quick reply, it really helps. I just wonder whether I had it all along but never knew about it when I had my first child. Or whether it’s something that’s just happened since. Very puzzled. Hopefully get some answers soon when I go for my scan. My GP basically said that was it for me no more kids just ivf due to high testosterone. But read on internet that some people can still get pregnant with it plus you are a real example! I’m really pleased you were able to get pregnant without needing ivf. Must have been a stressful time for you

@rudyroo

I’m glad your GP was understanding and didn’t fob you off. It’s best to have blood tests and get these things sorted if an issue. It may come back and all fine. Good luck
