What's the longest cycle you've ever had?

I came off the pill 4 months ago and the first few months my cycles were normal lengths. Well I am currently on CD 45. Took a test about 8 days ago and BFN. I just feel like AF is never going to show up again! I just want to get it so we can keep trying! Chat Icon

So whats the longest cycle you girls have ever had?

How did your doctor determine that you needed Provera? Was it just b/c of that one long cycle?

yes. i called on like cd 70 and she said to go get bloodwork. that was on july 3rd so i had to wait til the following week to get it done and i was super busy so by the time i got to go to a lab it was like a week later, and then it took a few days for the results.
once the results came in she called and said i "may" have PCOS and she prescribed provera. she said i should chart for a month to see if i O before getting a DX for anything but im considering switching docs for the DX...

anyway to make a longish story short - my cycle was that long cause i didnt O at all during it. i still dont think its the norm.

When I first went off the pill my cycles were normal too. Then they became irregular and I had a 40 day cycle.

I think I win (unfortunately). My last AF was March 18, which was over 140 days ago. I went off BCP at the very end of January. AF showed up six weeks later and then disappeared. I am now on my fourth day of provera. Hopefully that does the trick.

Maybe 36 days, I am very fortunate that I have always been regular. I have also never been on BC.

Guess I'm different.

I've had irregular cycles as a kid (skipping months was normal).

After a short period on BCP (2-3 months) prior to wedding...I was normal.

My cycle can be elongated by a week...so that's 43 or 44 days normally.

I was 51 days the first cycle off BCP. 36 days the 2nd cycle...I'm hoping this one is more normal, but who knows.
I've seen a lot of girls post on this board that their first few cycles post BCP were normal and the 3rd or 4th was screwy. Hang in there.

Re: What's the longest cycle you've ever had?

I have been off of BC for four years now. During the past fours years I had one cycle that was 61 days long. I ended up going to the gyno to find out what was going on. She told me sometimes you just have a cycle where you don't ovulate. It was a freak thing I guess. Hasn't happened since.

Re: What's the longest cycle you've ever had?

My longest cycle was 34 days, before DS I was always 28 days exactly.. Now I vary from 28 to 32 days.

They say its normal to have irregular patterns after BC.. but you can always call your OB if you have any questions!

This cycle is actually my longest. I am on CD 30. Normally I average 26 days. I am thinking that I ovulated late this month.

Re: What's the longest cycle you've ever had?

I gradually went up the first few months off the pill: 31, 38, 49, but have been about 31-32 days for the past few months. I kept testing too that long month and finally called the dr. on CD48 and he told me if no AF in 2 more weeks to call back. It came the next day. Are you on pre-natals? I went on them the first month off and hated them b/c of stomach issues, but went back on them in May and have been since and I find my period is more regular, but it could just be a coincidence. GL!!

Re: What's the longest cycle you've ever had?

My longest was 59 days. I'm usually pretty consistent at 30 days. I was just very upset that month due to some very serious family stress.
