Hello I have a 11 1/2 month old baby and only had 2 periods since I had her, I went straight back on birth control after I had her and come off after 2 months as me and ny partner wanted to try for baby number 2! Ever since coming off the pill I haven't had a period. We have been to the doctors on many occasions who diagnosed an underactive thyroid and put me on medication but now all my hormones are normal again. He sent me for a scan on my ovaries and the test showed there was nothing wrong but he doesn't no why I am not having periods and it is really confusing as the only thing I want is to be pregnant again. He has ruled out pcos and the next thing on the cards is my partner has to do a semen sample if that comes back fine then he is going to send us to the fertility clinic.
Has anybody got any ideas on why my periods have stopped and can you still get pregnant without having periods? How do I know if I am still ovulating any help would be appreciated
Thank you
Melissa

Hi Melissa,

Firstly wanted to wish you and your partner good luck.

Secondly, I personally think that it is definitely possible to fall pregnant without having a menstrual cycle for so long.
Especially with breastfeeding Mothers.

Hello everyone it has been a few weeks since I posted my question just wanted to ask a few more things
Yesterday I went shopping and had a really bad pain it felt like something like exploded inside me and I just felt like I had to get home fast, this was at about 2pm, then on the night time I went to the toilet and was bleeding. Since the bleeding it stopped straight away and still no more bleeding today, I just wanted peoples opinions on what they thing it could be. Could it be a sighting of my period coming back after nearly a yr? Maybe a miscarriage? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
Melissa
