Had IUD removed yesterday how long will it take now?

I had my IUD removed yesterday. The Dr. told me that it may take me 2 weeks to ovulate, or it may take me 15 weeks. We are wanting to get pregnant. I didn't have a period while I had the IUD, however I only had it for 7 months. Should I wait to get normal periods before we try or should we just try. The Dr. did say to wait 36 to 48 hours before sex, but didnt say anything else. Just wondering if anyone has gone through this.

I had mine out in November after having it in for 16 months. I had finally started getting my periods in August, but I was nursing until then, so that probably had more to do with it than anything else.

Anyway, I had mine out around the time of ovulation, but we were going to take that cycle off anyway. I got pg the next cycle, but had a very early loss. I did get pg again after waiting one cycle after the miscarriage and am now 13 weeks 4 days. So as you can see, it didn't take long at all in the grand scheme of things.

Good luck!!
