Help - am I normal? First time poster

[Confuzzled09]

Hi there,

This is my first posting on Mumsnet - although I've been a regular reader for a while now.
Am hoping some of you will have thoughts/advice on my situation as finding things a little frustrating.
I came off the pill in July this year, had my 'normal' pill period, then nothing but a few days of spotting here and there through the rest of July and August.
End of Sept had a couple of days of light bleeding and again (about 30 days later) in Ocotober. So got happy thinking my periods were coming back to a cycle however had 5 days of light bleeding on 9th Nov and light spotting on 25th Nov (which I convinced my self could've been implantation bleeding ha ha).
I know there are lots more of you out there who've been trying longer to get pg but would really welcome any thoughts on whether this is normal (I've had my hormone levels checked and that is all ok) & how on earth I even try to predict when I'm ovulating.
Am trying to stay relaxed about it all but the control freak in me keeps popping up

Would not call this normal at all.

Spotting between periods should always be checked out medically to establish the cause. It is often not serious but the cause should be established particularly if it keeps happening.

What hormone levels were checked and on what cycle days?. That is likely having a bearing on things and it is also possible to have periods without ovulating. Who told you the levels were okay, I only ask as some GPs can be pretty ignorant when it comes to such problems.

I would return to the GP and ask for a referral to a gynaecologist.

Oooh thanks AttilaTheMeerkat- see that's where I'm new to all this !!
I had a test back in September but no ideal on what cycle day as don't really have a cycle.
My GP has told me that it will take a while for periods to come back to normal but I've come off the pill before and it hasn't taken this long.
I always used to have 'spotting' when I was on the pill. WHich I highlighted to them time and time again. Had a smear which was all fine and was just put on different pills.
My GP is pretty useless and it frustrates me that I'm getting the text book chat just because it's normal for periods to be weird when you come off the pill.
My DH is 41 so I really want to get cracking on with the baby making. Is there anywhere else you can go for help aside from GP?
