I’m currently attempting to fall pregnant for the first time, I went off the pill at the end of Feb, and I still haven’t had a period,
I have tested to see if I was pregnant nothing yet, I have a doctors appointment booked in a few weeks but I’m so anxious and I know that will make it worse :(
Has anyone else had this?

I think it's normal for it to not start straight away? Also if you've been actively trying since then you could be pregnant but not far enough along to test.
That's normal after coming off birth control
It took eight months for my period to come back after stopping BC. I think it's pretty normal to take up to a year to come back properly.
I'm surprised the doctor didn't mention it would take a while for your period to come back to normal after going off the pill.
I didn’t speak to the doctor about goign off the the pill
Have an appointment next week to see what I can do to get my period back
It’s ok, you don’t do anything, it will come back. Also you could be pregnant. You may have been too early. Test again or get a blood test. Good luck with everything but don’t stress, it’s normal.
It’s normal, your body will adjust. Get a blood tests done to make sure.
It's completely common and your period probably won't regulate itself for a while yet. But your doctor can rule out anything sinister anyway just to be on the safe side.
Very normal, unless you are me, who would have had non stop bleeding
It took us 6 years after stopping contraception to fall pregnant. There were no issues found with either of us. We had all the tests possible and even used fertility meds and did IVf, nothing gave us our much longed for baby. Until we stopped TTC and started to move on with our lives child free. We fell pregnant 1 year after we decided to stop TTC.
I feel that the pill messed with my hormones and ruined my fertility. After our first baby, I stayed off all contraception except condoms and we conceived our second after 2 months of TTC.
I am not sure of your age but I definitely recommend getting a referral to a gynaecologist or a fertility specialist as soon as possible
Under 30 so they won’t refer me till we’ve been trying for 12 months
It's normal for it to take some time after coming off the pill. I know a naturopath here helped with rebalancing hormones and I started exercising and my obstetrician feels it sped up my ovulation 🤷♀️
