Using a little help to conceive

I started ttc in January, after 3 months I thought I would try using a bit of help with ovulation strips and some pre pregnancy vitamins. I used the Pregnacare band.
My period Cycle went from 33/34 days to 27/28 days.
I had a 3 for 2 offer so used them for 3 months. After that I thought "if its going to happen, it will happen, without needing to spend money".
So as soon as I stopped using them, my cycle went back to 33 days.
So now I'm like, what do I do? Do I go out and buy more or stop! I'm not sure if it's doing my ovulation any good.
Confused. Com
I would ask a doctor, but you know what that's like these days.
Anybody experienced the same or any advice please.

I wouldn't say 27/28 days was that short, do you know what day you ovulated? As long as your luteal phase (between ovulation and af) is at least 12 days you should be ok!

If you don't want to continue on multivits, you need to at least take folic acid and vitamin d. Won't help you conceive but will prevent birth defects so important x
