My husband and I have been trying to conceive for nearly 6 months now. I am 23 years old and in great health, and have been off the pill for nearly 4 years. We have been doing ovulation testing and taking temps for the past 4 months and have no sign of ovulation. The last two months I have had spotting almost constantly between periods and both months right around the time I am suppose to ovulate I have had sharp pains in my perineum (area between vagina and rectum) that only last a few minutes, usually at night and only one or two days. I have had a pap in the last year and have never had a bad one come back. Has anyone had similar symptoms??? I have a gyno appointment in 2 1/2 months, but I wonder if I should go sooner. I did also have a problem about 3 years ago I did not have a period for a little over a year. The doctor never diagnosed anything, but merely said it was probably due to going off the pill and stress. I don't want to jump to any conclusions and everyone keeps telling me I should wait a year and see if we get pregnant.
