I have been on deprov for several yrs how do I know when to take a pregn test when I haven't had a cycle??
Question: my husband and I have decided to have a baby. I went off depo in april. I had a cycle in may nothing in june and just a bit of spotting in july. I am hoping that the july spotting was implantation bleeding. How do I know when I can take a test and it be accurate though, when I don't know when my missed period would be sincie I don't have a regular cylce? I am hoping I am pregnant now but the anticipation is driving me nuts. I just want to know one way or another.
Answers:
I'm no doctor but my friend had the same problem. Her doctor had her stop the shots and get on the pill tor 3 months to help regulate her period and get it back to normal. After 3 months she stopped taking the pill and started taking prenatal vitamins. It took about 4 months after that for her to get pregnant.
My suggestion is that you take a test and wait for the results. Even if you're not pregnant see your doctor for an other test to make sure. If thats negative also then discuss doing what my friend did with your doctor. I know the way she did it was time consuming but her doctor felt that was the safest way for her to get pregnant.
GOOD LUCK
I was on the deprov too..and I stopped getting the shot and 3 months later I was pregnant....they say it's good to have that stuff completely out of your system BEFORE trying to conceive...BUT after NOT having a period for almost 5 yrs..and gaining 100 lbs...I figured...I'd rather be skinny and worry about becoming pregnant..than gaining like 40 lbs every 3 months...SOOOOO...if your body "FEELS" different to you..take a test... but it could be a few months before you actually get pregnant! GOOD LUCK!!!
