I am currently undergoing fertility investigations and when my OH asked about the pill being in my system after all this time (15 months) the doctor replied saying it would be out of my system immediately. This is even after I was overdosed on the pill.

I didn't think the pill effected fertility because I came of the pill and 4 weeks later I was pregnant, but I think maybe it can depend from person to person, maybe you should speak to your gp or someone who knows what they're talking about and c what they say. hope you get your baby soon though, good luck! xxxxx

When you want something so badly you can get a bit ahead of yourself quite easily. I expect to take a fair few months before getting pregnant and find this relaxes me a bit - the more you obsess about it the more you stress your body and the less likely it is to get pg. I feel for you so much, but just try to enjoy the process - look at the statistics on here for average times to conceive and it might make you feel better! Loads of luck xxxxx

yeah i have regular periods but since coming off the pill they seem to come at different time of the month only by a few days.
Ok. Just carry on doing baby dance every two days throughout your cycle. If you drink, try to avoid excessive drinking as it can affect ovulation. Try not worry about it. It can take up to 12 months to conceived. . Hope it will happen soon. Best wishes & a lot of baby dust.

It can take upto 12 months or less for the pill come out of your system. You are still young and it will happen. Make sure you know your fertile window by using ovulation stick or fertility monitor to track your ovulation. Alot of baby dancing every two days throughout your cyle. Do you have regular period? Try cut down your stress level, you & partner are eating health etc Best wihses.
