TTC with unexplained irregular periods

[MelanzaneallaParmigiana]

Hello! I just wanted to reach out in case anyone else had encountered anything similar.

I have irregular periods (currently they happen every seven / eight weeks or so). Doctors looked into it a while ago and didn't think it's PCOS, because I didn't fit the profile in other ways, but it's possible.

Just wondering if anyone had anything similar? And whether it's safe to start trying for a baby? I think people have healthy natural pregnancies with irregular periods right??

Would be v grateful for any thoughts/ experiences? Thank you <3

Definitely try! Have you ever used ovulation tests? Start using those. X

Hi @Emmamoo89 ! Ooh no, I never have. Have you? Would you recommend any? Thanks x

Hi! I am exactly the same, very irregular came off the pill November 2021. Had PCOS blood test but negative, going to be having a scan soon but doc not convinced as have no other symptoms

I use easy@home and the premom app x

I’ve had irregular periods for years - usually every 7/8 weeks like you. I also have an underactive thyroid, but even with medication they’ve never become regular. I was very pessimistic about ttc, but using the Premom app, ovulation tests and taking temp every morning, I was able to work out when I ovulated and we were successful on our first try! Currently holding a bonnie 8 week old bubba 🥰

OOooh wonderful! Congratulations on your baby! That is excellent news. Thank you for sending, great to hear an encouraging story. I will check out this pre-mom app. <3

Hey there! Your situation does sound very similar yes. Doctors always seem a bit flummoxed if its not pcos in my experience? I hope you get some answers! x
