My periods are very irregular. In Feb. 08 I had a miscarriage thats when I found out I had endometriosis my doctor put me on the lupron shot which stopped my period for a year. I went back to the doctor because I didn't have a period and i was only on the lupron shot for 6 months well he put me on birth control to start my period and hoping it would kickstart my cycle.. well at the end of that one month cycle of birth control i had a really heavy period and that was it until the early part of june. which as only been spotting and its still going on... i want to have a baby but the way my cycle is going i have no clue what will happen. I was wondering if i can still get pregnant? does anyone have any advice on what to do....

If you are ovulating, you can still get pregnant. That would be something to have your doctor check for. With an irregular cycle you may or may not be ovulating on a regular basis.
You may need to be using the pill for awhile longer to see if it will regulate your cycle... or your doctor may want to try a different approach. Regular periods, however, do not necessarily mean you are ovulating each cycle... so that would still need to be determined, and if you aren't, other options would need to be discussed.

I've had an irregular period for 10+ years, getting healthier was the only thing that seemed to help me get pregnant, and not trying :P Good luck!
