Ok, so I took my last birth control pill in September (6 months ago). I had 2 "normal" periods, in that they were right on time (28 days apart), then had one period that was 13 days late (41 day cycle). Then had a period 2 weeks after that one started (so a 14 day cycle), and now haven't had a period in 46 days and counting (18 days "late"). I tested a few weeks ago, when I was one week late, negative. I don't want to waste anymore tests, but I'm pretty convinced I'm not pregnant (no symptoms, negative test). I thought 6 months would be enough to get my body back into shape. If I remember correctly, before I went on birthcontrol (11 years ago when I was 14 years old) my periods were between 31 and 36 days apart...but never 46 and counting. Has anyone had such sporatically timed periods? Can this mean that one ovary isn't working properly? I assume this can make it more difficult to get pregnant. We're trying to get pregnant in the sense that we're not preventing...but we're not keeping track of anything else (because in the past, getting pregnant has consumed me and all my time). I know that six months of trying isn't really that long, especially when you're not tracking ovulation, but it is for my family (all of them, on both sides have gotten pregnant during their first s_xual experience and fairly quickly after giving birth thereafter). Oh well, I guess there isn't much of a question here, but I would love some comments.
