No withdrawal bleed after combined pill

Hi everyone Smile

I came off the combined pill 3 weeks and 2 days ago as TTC. I haven’t had a withdrawal bleed or a period. Seems odd and I’m worried I won’t be able to conceive. There’s no reason I’d be pregnant already as while me and OH have DTD pill-free twice, that was only one week ago. I also have no pregnancy symptoms what so ever. Any advice/experience greatly appreciated! Thanks.

And I forgot to mention - 1.5 weeks ago (around the time we dtd) I had pains that felt like period pains for about 2 days and also EWCM. So I’m hoping that my ovaries might be doing something?! Or is there anything besides ovulation that can cause EWCM Hmm

Don't worry at all, that sounds quite normal to me, things take time to settle down. I came off the pill at the end of November and had no withdrawal bleed, nothing for 6 weeks and then AF arrived and was regular. I got my BFP this morning. Doesn't really feel real to be honest as I thought it would take longer than 4 months. EWCM is also a good sign for ovulation so keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Thank you so much for your reply, it’s made me feel much better. It’s hard not to over think my entire body. If I wasn’t TTC I’d probably not take much notice at all!

Huge congrats on your BFP! Wonderful news Smile I can remember it feeling very unreal and not sinking in at all with my first (I have an 8 year old so a while ago now!). Best of luck for your pregnancy
