Hi All
I'm new to this and am hoping for any recent experiences from people in the same/similar situation as me and hope to hear how you got on. I was on depo for about 10 years, not ideal I know. I had my last injection 10 aug 2013 which therefore expired about 2 nov 2013. In jan 2014 I had started to have incredibly sore boobs, this lasted about 3 months. In May 2014 I started my first af, didn't write down the dates but it lasted about a month (at least). Then since June it has been as follows
19 days on
14 days off
6 days on
10 days off
6 days on
7 days off
Currently 4 days on and counting...
It is driving me mad!
The cramps are terrible, i never had pains like this before. And as it is happening so frequently it is becoming a bit too much. I also have been using the ovulation test strips which I bought from eBay. I have used at least 40 and have never had a positive. I therefore think I may not be ovulating? I haven't been able to use them at the same time dash day due to work commitments.
I went to my doctor last week as in past threads i have read they can help by doing tests to see if you are ovulating or can give you a pack of pills to jumpstart your system etc. I was really disappointed as she said that because I have had the injection they will not speak to me about conceiving or do any tests until I have been off the injection for 3 years. Yes 3 years! Wow! I have been off it for about 10 months.
I have had a chlamydia test from the family planning clinic which was negative as i've heard this can be the cause of irregular bleeding.
Any advice or experiences of others would be good to hear. Is there anything I can buy online or over the counter that can help?
Thanks in advance
