Conceiving after birth control pills!

[purplepoet20]

Purple have you ever been on BC and come off to conceive before? I have had friends who have a hard time getting their cycle back and others ovulate no problem. Hard to say since everyone is different.

DS1 was while on an estrogen pill and days before AF, DS2 was 1mth after IUD fell out, and DS3 only happen because I gave up after many many cycles of trying a sway.

please bump this for me, would like to answer in more detail

I didn't ovulate for almost 6 months after coming off the pill, cycles were a mess. I know most women don't have that issue but it can happen.

I have people come off the pill, start doing OPK, and then try to catch the first egg if possible. It's been pretty difficult for people to get pregnant that way, but on paper it should sway somewhat pink.

Do not use any hormonal supps (vitex, sp, pep tea) until AF after you have ovulated the first month comign off the pill. and i'd go easy on jelly and antihistamine to improve odds that you will be able to get pregnant that first month.

Don't be sad or shocked if you dont' get pregnant that first month and also it may very well be that your ovulation is very delayed.

Since it has been such a PITA I no longer recommend going onto the pill just for swaying, this is for people who are on it for birth control to begin with.

Are there any stats on what gender ladies have conceived when an unplanned pregnancy happens on the pill? I'm on a mini one at the mo (Noriday) and thinking of taking a test as it has messed up my cycle and I just want to make sure I'm not

I concieved my first daughter right off the depo shot and my middle daughter after missing a birth control patch. My youngest daughter was concieved after no period or birth control for a little over a year. 😊

I think progesterone sways pink, so if you conceive soon I think it will be a girl.

I'm not sure if progesterone in and of itself sways pink OR if it's the effect of longterm use of supplemental hormones on the cervical crypts that make EWCM. I would not rely on the idea of prog swaying pink for your sway.

Thanks, I'm not pregnant anyway. AF finally arrived. That is good though, I'm over the wanting to 'accidently' get pregnant. I'm busy enough right now! Good to know for the future, just in case

I really want to know this, too. I conceived twice on BCPs (combined, not progesterone only) in my early twenties, despite perfect use. I discovered I actually still O on the pill, but I have ZERO CM of any kind. Seems like a good sway tactic but I think I will try straight off the pill instead.
