Hello all
I've read a previous thread however its dated some time ago. I was just wondering about ladies experience of coming off contraception, how long did it take for ovulation to regulate and how long it took to conceive. Interested as I haven't found much information thank you 😊

Hi,
Ive been on a form of the pill since I was 11 due to heavy bleeding constantly im 32 now.
My doctors moved me from a normal pill where I would have a 7 day break to cerelle in November. I did 3 months worth and have now been off it since middle of January. I had a period which started a few days after and lasted for 2 weeks. Finished 30th Jan. Haven't had one since.
We're trying to conceive. Ive done a pregnancy test and its negative.
Anyone else had a similar experience coming off cerelle? I didnt cope very well when I was on it. Spotting/headaches no regular period but I did have one even though the nurse said it would stop. Just a bit confused. Would appreciate the advice

Sorry no advice but I was also wondering about experiences with coming off Cerelle as I have recently done so (Feb 17th), no withdrawal bleed at all yet. I thought it would be straight away as when I the implant removed I had a bleed a day or two after!

I had my withdrawal bleed finally exactly 3 weeks to the day after I stopped the pill. Now just waiting for my first normal period which should hopefully turn up in the next few days! I know I ovulated 14 days after my withdrawal bleed as I used OPKs and managed to catch when my peak was on day 14.
Good luck with trying for number 2Smile

Hey,

Just wondering if anybody had quite regular periods on Cerelle and if yes, how did your cycle go after you stopped?

The last few months I've had bleeds most months after not having them regularly for a lot of them time I've been on it. Stopped last Monday, a couple of days after my last bleed ended.....wondering if these bleeds are my 'real' period or not?

Ps. I also experienced bleeds a couple of days after I missed a pill usually, can only assume it's the variation in hormone levels from missing it then taking it again that caused that as I stopped 9 days ago now and haven't bled at all.
