Trying to conceive after the depo injection

[Ymack]

This is my first time posting on this but I can't seem to find any one in the same boat as me

I was on the depo injection for around 2 and half years I had my last injection in June 2014 in hope to conceive our first. I had a withdrawal bleed back in June thinking I had gone back to normal cycle straight away. WRONG! Haven't has anything since

2 weeks ago yesterday (Monday) I decided to use an ovulation test out the blue and to my surprise it was a very strong positive so on that night we did the naked dance (not sure what the code word is) but even though I could of ovulated I'm aware we may of been a little late.

The past week iv had horrible stomach pains thinking it's AF on her way but nothing so far. This morning iv woke up with a horrible metallic taste in my mouth, I decided to test but I got a BFN. I'll be happy if I come on my period as I want my body to start getting back into a cycle but I'll obviously I'll be happy if I'm pregnant but I haven't got my hopes up. Can any one relate? Or been through the similar thing and get pregnant. I feel really down now and feel like my body is not doing what it should be able to do

I'm sorry I don't have much to say. I was on depo too and have heard it can take several months for hormones to regulate. As far as your pos OPK I'm not sure. However, if you're not doing this already I would suggest temping, using OPK and BD(baby dance) every day you have a string pos aka you line MUST be DARKER than the control. Also BD 2-3 days after you no longer have pos OPK incase you ️️️️ovulate late. I use fertility friend to track everything and it helps tells you when you're fertile. Anyways I hope I've helped you.

I just wanted to say that there's a whole thread in the Not Trying Not Preventing forum about TTC after Depo, I know it can be quite a ride, good luck : )
