Forum : Pregnancy

Hi. I was on the injection for 6 years and came off that a year and half ago and went on the pill as I was told it take a long time to get out of my system. I went on the pill as I was getting married and didn't to fall pregnant before the wedding. after coming off that it took me about 4 months to fall pregnant.
I'm not really convinced that the lenth of time you've been on the pill and giving it time to get out of your system is right, I think it's whenever your body is naturally ready.
Try not to think about it too much, as you don't want to stress yourself out and stress your body out

okay thanks for your comment. So I could fall pregnant say 4 months from now? I dont mind when i do fall pregnant, like you say its when my body is naturally ready. Should I and my partner have unprotected sex now or wait until my next natural period? Sorry if its TMI xx

Hiya, I was on microgynon for four years as well before comming off it to get pregnant. I didnt even wait for a period just stopped taking it and was pregnant within the month so before I even had a chance to have a period. Ovb every1s different but it didnt take us any time to concieve and was on the pill for exactly the same amount of time. Good luck (that might sound a bit weird when your trying :s but hey.)

hi
it is absolutely impossible to say. you could fall pregnant next month or it may not be until next year. anything up to 12 months is normal but 18 months isnt uncommon. your age may or may not play a part in that - you are young so you may fall quickly but equally it may work against you....there is simply no way of knowing. it is up to you whether you wait, but to be honest, i would wait for one normal cycle before you start trying just to be sure that the artificial hormones are out of your system. waiting for one period is usually only for dating purposes but in reality it doesnt matter as the date you get at a 12 week scan is the one you go by anyway. your due date by your period will be changed by the scan so either way it doesnt matter hugely.

i was 25 when my partner and i decided to have our first baby and we fell pregnant that month. i was 29 when we tried for our second and it took 3 months to fall. i hadnt been on any form of hormonal contraception.

Hi, in my opinion every woman is different and so you can't put a time period on these things. Other factors such as age, weight and diet can also effect how long it can take to conceive. I was 20 when I fell pregnant with my little one, I had been on the pill for 5 years and it took us 8 months before I fell pregnant. Try not to be too disheartened if you don't fall pregnant straight away, these things take time and just make it so much more worth it when you finally do conceive. Good luck x

Hi
I have been on microgynon 30 for 5 months almost, and I did stop take the pills around november, and since then me and my husband has been trying for a baby without any luck. My question here is do I have a chance of becoming pregnant after stopping the pills?
regards

Hi, im 19 and my baby is now 9 months old, he was planned but we still got the 'are you sure your ready? your too young blah blah blah' but to be honest, its been the best experience of my life and i know we done the right thing at the right time for us.
Anyway, i was on microgynon 30 for 4 years too, i finished the pack and had the normal bleed then got caught straight away :) perfect timimg for us :)
Hope all goes well, feel free to message me anytime xx
