Suggest Ways To Regularise Periods After Stopping Birth Control Pills

In high school I would get a period every 3-6 months and it would last 1-2 weeks. My doctors checked and hormones were fine etc. Since then If I m on the pill I get a 1-2 day period about every other month usually the last day of the 28pills and skip the next month even on the pill, never pregnant. I did get pregnant and have a miscarriage at 26 when antibiotics interfered with birth control, but I sick with mono and phemonuea, and had an allergic reaction to the antibiotics, so I think that contributed. Off the pill its the same as before. I m now 32 my husband and I want to conceive. We did all the blood and fertility work in January 2015. Everything is fine, doctor says keep trying for another year. Anything naturally I can do to ovulate more consistently?

Hi,

I would suggest to get ovulation study, exclude PCOD and thyroid function test. Get specific treatment if needful. Once ovulation is confirmed to be normal and seven analysis is normal, you can try for natural conception, with unprotected sex around ovulation day (can be asked by LH surge test. In case of any abnormal findings in above mentioned tests, you need to consult a fertility doctor.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
