? For those who were on the pill for a long time...
Did you start trying right away after you went off? I have been hearing mixed things about when to start... risk of an MC within the first month b/c of your uterine lining being too thin?
Others saying that you are most fertile first month??

Re: ? For those who were on the pill for a long time...
I went off in Novemeber. I was on it for 9 years. My cycle didn't regulate until January. We started this month, but my doctor had told me that if I tried right away there wasn't a risk, however that it could be difficult since my cycle was a different length each month.
Did you ask your doc?

Thanks.
I asked my doctor who said the same thing, but 2 other doctors in the same practice had different opinions (one said wait one month, the other said 2). So just curious what your experiences have been.

I went off and started tring right away. My Dr said that there wasn't any risks. My sister got PG her first month off. I was on it for 6 years and my fisrt cycle was normal amount of days, just really intense.

I was on it for 2 years and it took about 6 months for it to get back to semi-normal.

Is that about the norm?

I went off the pill and my first cycle was normal - I got pregnant my second month off the pill. Its a good idea to let your schedule regulate before TTC - but it isn't mandatory.

I came off the pill of 11 years 2 months ago even though I'm not trying yet I just wanted to give my body a break.

Re: ? For those who were on the pill for a long time...
we waited about 2 -3 months after I went off the pil.
I have a friend who miscarried immediately going off the pill.
