Stopping anti depressants - delayed ovulation?

Hello

I have recently weaned myself off Citalopram after being on it for around 2 years.
I have been TTC since January (8th cycle)
Each month my periods and ovulation are pretty much bang on, and I normally ovulate on CD 14.
This month I've had had some of my usual symptoms of ovulation - bloating, constipation, pains and EWCM (EWCM a lot more than usual) but no LH surge ? Which is so unusual for me.

Does anybody know if medication changes can effect ovulation? Or specifically if you've had the same experience weaning off anti depressants?

Thanks

I know some medications can have an impact on your cycle. When I came off Sertraline it took a couple of months where I had longer periods and longer cycles before it settled down again (not sure if it was directly connected to the medication or to my body's natural reactions to emotions etc that sertraline had been controlling). Keep tracking for a few months is what I'd do, hopefully it'll settle down into a rhythm soon.
