Me & my fiance have been trying to get pregnant & for the past 5 months I've missed my cycle. All the pregnancy tests were coming back negative & on Friday I got my period. The first 2 days were much heavier than usual & now are normal & I am very confused what might have happened where my cycle would have stopped for 5 months & just picked up again. Has this happened to anyone else? :confused:

Have you been on birth control previous to trying to have children?

Were you regular up until the five months that you missed?

Have you had an unusual amount of additional stress in your life?

No, I have never been on birth control before however my periods have never been regular. There have been times where I have skipped a month but never more than 2 in a row. As far as stress, I haven't felt more than usual. The only thing I can think of is my weight, which I have gained a lot in the past 5 months, but not enough to be catorgized as obese. Could that still be a reason?
