I was on the same pill and it took around 6 or 7 months for my cycles to regulate, the first one was over 50 days and they reduced gradually in length from that

We started TTC baby 2 about at that point (I came off in advance this time as knew it took a while to regulate when TTC baby 1) and I fell pregnant first cycle using ovulation sticks as still wasn't exactly sure what my body was doing!

Thanks I think il buy some ovulation sticks try figure out what's going on hoping it doesn't take too long took 1 month with my first then 4 years to conceive number 2 3rd wasn't planned but result of one split condom, was hoping this time would be straightforward especially since periods have been regular for years now

I think that would definitely help if you don't want to wait for them to regulate!

I stopped taking cerelle 28th Feb and still waiting for my withdrawal bleed. Have no idea when to expect it but had back ache and cramps for around a week. Feel like I'm stuck in limbo!

Mine came back on the first cycle and then I fell pregnant immediately. I’m an old fart too, I’m nearly 40 and currently lying under my 11 month old.

I stopped taking Cerelle on the 6th January and still waiting for a withdrawal bleed, I really don't know what is going on. When I came off the combined pill when I was TTC #1 I had a withdrawal bleed within a week of stopping, however my cycles were 50+ days

Hey guys.
So I was on cerezette until Nogember last year and I got a withdrawal bleed within a few days of stopping and then it took nearly 7 weeks for me to get my first AF.
However when I stopped it in October 2020. It took me bang on two month to get my first AF and then there was over a 2 month gap to the next one and then it went back to being a bit more normal until I went back on it when I first met my partner in April this year.
When I spoke to my doctors about it, they told me that it can take up to 6 months for your periods to go back to normal after coming of off the pill.
