Re: can u girls shed some light

Your situation is similar to mine. I was due for AF on 6/28. Although it is my first month off BCP, I am not comfortable waiting to find out what is going on. I tested yesterday morning & BFN. I am going to my doctor later today for a blood test. If I am not pregnant, then I need to know what is going on.

If I were you I would go--at least for peace of mind.

Re: can u girls shed some light

since coming off the pill have you been regular? If so, I would definately call the dr as it is 2 weeks after your AF was scheduled. I do know that some girls HCG does not reach their urine & will continue to get BFN & need bloodwork to tell whether or not they are pg.

Re: can u girls shed some light

My first question is why haven't you tested again???? A lot of PG tests measure a HIGH level of Hcg so you will get a BFN if you test too early.

I would test again at home before calling the MD.

My AF was 9 days late my first month TTC. It turned out that I O'd late that month so AF was very late as well. I tested BFN on various tests and thought I was going crazy. Since you have been off BCP for so long I doubt that is what is causing AF to be late. I would use a HPT one more time and if still no BFP, call your Dr.

Re: can u girls shed some light

I was on the pill for 10 years...straight...I had 14 months TTC....3 months I was using OPKs. I made an appointment to see a RE...and she told me that I was pregnant after doing bloodwork..I had no idea...I'm on CD 32 and since my cycles are irregular I didn't consider myself late. Based on the OPK..today is 14 DPO

My period for the last 14 months were from 30 -41 days long. In the beginning months it was 29 then it got later and later.

Re: can u girls shed some light

You definitely should call the doctor....even if it's just an irregular cycle you should let him/her know what's going on with your body....

Good luck!!
