In a typical cycle, the uterine lining will build up and you will ovulate. The egg is only viable for 12-24 hours and if it remains unfertilized it will dissolve. After so many days (usually 14) your period will start and the lining is shed in the form of bleeding. If you're ovulating but not expelling the lining, it will continue to grow and grow and eventually be too heavy and will shed itself - it can only get to be too much before you bleed very heavily. There has to be a uterine lining, as otherwise the egg has nothing it can implant into. This is why when a female has an ablation done she no longer should try to get pregnant, as it destroys the lining.

Your posts are a bit confusing and all over the place. Your cousin getting pregnant is irrelevant, as it's not you. The symptoms your partner has are also irrelevant in relation to pregnancy, as it's the hCG hormone that causes pregnancy and men don't produce this. (it's only produced in detectable amounts when pregnant)

You don't need a cycle to get pregnant, as a female ovulates before having a period. However not having a cycle usually indicates you are not ovulating. If your last shot was in November, you would be due for another one around this time and can explain many of your symptoms - your body needs time to readjust itself from the hormones you had in your body. I'm confused however why you would have gotten the shot in November if you were already TTC.

My cycles are irregular my last shot was November my cousin and doctor said you don't have to bleed to get pregnant and I been ttc since Oct. But I would have to get a blood test done to determine if I'm pregnant or not I get plenty of rest but when I wake up I feel energized but 10 minutes later I'm yawning I felt like this before

Your symptoms aren't reliable in determining pregnancy, only because these can be related or caused by other problems. When was your LMP, when was your last shot, are your cycles regular or irregular, and when did you start TTC?
