Life after the pill….

Hello, I’ve been off the pill for a week now and am just ending what I believe to be my withdrawal bleed after 5 days. For back ground I’ve been on the pill (rigevidon) for the past year. I’m 27 and I have a 10 year old daughter already. I am trying to get pregnant and just wondered if anyone had any experience of getting pregnant after the pill and how soon? Im using an ovulation tracker but I know it won’t be accurate until I get a ‘true period’. Am I getting my hopes up thinking it may happen very soon? Thank you for reading.

Probably not what you want to hear but after I came off the pill my cycle took nearly a year to get back to normal. But thankfully was able to conceive first go using ovulation tests. So Would have conceived just over a year after I stopped the pill.

Although I was on it for years with no breaks so that might have had an affect on how long it took my body to get back to normal.

Sending baby dust your way :)

I came off the pill and got pregnant instantly, didn’t even have one period. Good luck!

Thank you! I’m hoping this could be the case for me too

Thank you, I didn’t have breaks either so was worried this may have had an effect. I know everyone is different and I suppose I got my hopes up that I had the breakthrough bleed super early but telling myself to be realistic and that these things take time

Yeah I didn't have breaks either and came off I believe around the 30th May, had a breakthrough bleed and am yet to have a period! (Haven't took any recent pregnancy test in the past few weeks so is a possibility)
