I had irregular periods when I was 14/15, got on birth control pills. I have been on them 7-8 years continuous. I have stopped them now for about 3-4 months, my husband and I are TTC and nothing. I don't think that I am ovulating from checking my cervical mucus. I don't want to go to the doctor and her tell me to wait it out, then I wasted 25 dollars. I was just worried because I had irregular periods before. Should I wait it out alittle more or go to the doctor and talk to her about it?

If you are under 35, they will tell you to try for a year before they'll do anything.
Birth control pills can wreck havoc on your fertility. My sister was on them for 10 years and it took her body 2 years without them to learn how to ovulate again on its own.
Watch your diet and make sure you are drinking plenty of clean water, getting some exercise and getting enough sleep. Try not to stress because ovulation doesn't work so well when you are stressing.

Is your period regular now that you are off the pill? If not then I would go see the doctor b/c they can help you get back onto a regular schedule. If so, then just wait b/c it may take up to a whole year for you to start ovulating regularly again even in you are having your period every month on time.
