TTC after stopping BC

[SidneyZ]

I have been off birth control for 2 months now and have not gotten my perios.  I've had some cramping which feels like my period, but have not actually had a period.  I am TTC and I am just wondering how long it should take for my periods to regulate, and if I can get pregnant without having a period after stopping BC.  What are the chances of getting pregnant this month?  Any help would be great.  Thanks

It's possible.  You can't really go by what your cycles were on the pill, because the pill made that cycle length.  To give you a starting point, you need to remember how your cycles were before the pill.  But, keep in mind, even after the pill, some women do not go back to their original cycle.  Every woman is different and our bodies are very complex.

While I was on the pill I had a 28 days cycle and now its been about 2 months and I haven't had a period.  So is it possible that I can ovulate this month without having gotten my period?

I stopped bc the first of December and got my period December 31.  I've had a 29 day cycle ever since.  I was regular before I went on the pill.  Were you?  Usually you tend to fall back into your period pattern as before the pill.  And yes, you can get pregnant without having your period after getting off the pill.  They say take 3 months for the pill to get our of your system, so I would give it another month.  And like the above poster said, if you still haven't gotten your period, then see your doctor and get a prescription for something to bring it on.

I can only answer the "period" question b/c i've never been pregnant.  I stopped bcp June 4 and exactly on uly 4 I started my period.  Since then my cycle length has been 24 days.  Every person is different as to how their bodies react to being off hormonal pills.  I would give it another month at getting a flow and if it hasn't come, go see you doctor.  Good luck and ssbd 2ya.  Oh, and just b/c you don't menstruate doesn't mean you can't get pregnant.  I've heard of many ladies not getting their after the pill period and still come up pregnant.
