Hi all I'm new to mum's net. I'm 29 years old in July and I have 3 children. After my son was born I started desogestrel, I've been on it for 6 years and stopped taking it may 17th as me and my husband want to try for a 4th baby (our last) I had a little bleed same day I came off the pill and I bleed again on the 10th June think this may have been a proper period as it was exactly like how my periods were before starting the pill. I'm also tracking my ovulation with the clear blue advanced opk and I had my peak result on the 24th and obviously me and my husband have been doing the baby dance every other day during my fertile window so I'm only 1dpo today (I think). Really I want to know how long it took you all to get pregnant after desogestrel

Straight away! Was surprised at just how fast it happened.

It took months for my periods to come back after stopping it, but once they did we got pregnant straight away. Good luck xx

@lishb1997 aw bless you I remember the tww the first cycle we were TTC - luckily we were successful that cycle and we had our lovely little boy. It was so bizarre I had no idea what to expect. Try to keep yourself distracted if you can, easier said than done though 😊xx
