Hi everyone,

What a great place this is, I only joined a couple of days ago and I'm hooked !!

My husband & I have decided to start trying to conceive, I've only recently stopped taking the pill but now have extremely sore boobs, had some cramps & very slight spotting.

I was on Microgynon 30, has anyone else experienced these symptoms?????? How long does it last, how long did it take to conceive after stopping the pill?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

sorry cant help you i was never on the pill but would like to say a big hello & hope you get your BFP ASAP!

Hi chuckles - welcome to the site.

I too stopped Microgynon 30 back in June and after a few weeks had a few cramps in my stomach felt a bit like af was coming but it didn't. From what I've heard others say it seems quite common to feel a bit like this when stopping the pill.

Dh and I are still ttc, only had first af since June last week so am hoping that now things appear to be getting back to normal we will get our bfp soon. Have head of others getting their bfps quite soon though. My sister in law got pregnant the first month off the pill!

Good luck and I hope you get your bfp very soon x

Hi and welcome i was on a diff pill to you but i think it's normal and just your body getting back to normal x x x

Hiya I came off microgynon 30 back in Aug was taking a while for me to come on so I took agnus castus which helped as within a week AF arrived. I had really sore nipples and cramps after bout 3 weeks after coming off the pill. So dont worry this is normal!!! xx

Thanks for the warm welcome, wishes and advice, it's great to know others have had the same symtoms as me, at least I know I'm not imagining all these strange symptoms ;\)

Was on the pill since I was 18 for heavy periods and I am now 33 and time is right for us to ttc, hopefully we won't wait too long.

hello and welcome!

Addiction to this site is perfectly normal!!

I stopped taking microgynon 30 in may had my withdrawal bleed as normal then 29 days later got my first then 29 then BFP! I remember having all sorts of aches and pains and sore bits and bobs. I think for me i was so used to having no symptoms of pms while being on the pill i wasnt used to having them when i stopped plus i was over annalizing (sp) every little symptom hoping it would be pregnancy!

I thought it would take ages to fall as id read loads of stories but it didnt take long for me! I hope your the same and fall really quick!

Good luck

Hey,

I came off the pill in Apr, had a withdrawal bleed which lasted for about 2 weeks, then seemed to wait rather a while before af. last cycle was 42 days, this cycle i OV'd pretty much bang on time - af should be her in 2 days - we're not ttc until December so if she doesn't arrive on time i'm goin to be so sad because it means my cycle will be longer-ggggrrrr.


Good Luck x

Not come off the pill but wanted to say hi and welcome.xxxx
