When will my periods return after combined pill

Hi, I am 25 years old and I took my last pill on the 12th April and I had my withdrawal bleed 17th-21st. I had some thick clear CM on the 6th and 7th May so I am assuming I ovulated around this time which would make me 13-14dpo however still no sign of my period. Is this normal? I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it came back negative so I am not sure what is going on! Any advice would be great! Thanks Smile

Hey, I'm on day 64 post - withdrawal bleed, with no sign of period.

I also dont seem to be ovulating (have been using the sticks to test).

NHS says 3 months until period returns is normal after stopping hormonal contraception but can take up to 6 months without it being concerning. Hope this is helpful!

I'm feeling a bit frustrated as I rather naively thought coming off the pill was me starting to TTC! But apparently not for me (others can literally fall pregnant immediately and ovulate straight after coming off so I'm not saying you'll be the same as me Smile)

Ah it's so frustrating isn't it Sad I really thought it would be so easy - silly me!!!

I tried using the ovulation sticks but I think I was using them too early then I ran out but I got the CM and the cramps so I think I did ovulate but i cannot tell for sure!

I hope you get yours soon!!
