Hi! New to Forum - Anyone in a similar situation? xx

[Flossie]

Hi, well me and hubby are finally getting some medical help and I thought it would be nice to share experiences.

I was on depo injections until 3 years ago, we have been for 2 years with no luck. For near enough the last 12 months I have had constant bleeding (only small amounts) ovulation tests were always negative.

We saw a consulatant at my local hospital, hubby's is normal. I am due to have an ultrasound on my ovaries on the 15th of this month, then I will get an appointment for a laproscopy.

However the bleeding has suddenly stopped over xmas after almost 12 months!! I'm trying not to get my hopes up that this is a good sign!!

But hopefully 2010 will be our year!!!!! good luck to everyone ttc!!

Hi Flossie, wellcome to this forum, I'm new to it too, all the girls are great! I had Depo jabs , only the 4 over the year term, and then it took me over a year to fall pregnant afterwards, and I'm sure from falling pregnant with others so much quicker, it was due to the jabs. After the first jab I bleed all the time, just thought my body getting used to it, turns out I could have gone back and had another depo jab straight away to stop the bleeding. My periods stopped after the second jab ish, and then didn't return for a good while after the last jab, so I think it sounds like your body is really gettgin back to normal. I certainly wouldn't have them again! Wishing you all the luck- JJ

Welcome, Flossie! I had the depo jab for 2 years (quite a few years ago) and it took my body about a year to get "back to normal" (never been normal ) and that took help from the doc giving me kick-starting hormones as I had no AF for over 9 months after coming off it.

Good luck, lovey and hope it happens for you soon!

Hi, i was fine while on the depo but when I came off it my periods never started. Then I had to take tablets to start them up again. I had one period, then when it started again it didnt stop for 12 months and now at xmas it stopped out of the blue. I will never have hormonal contraception again! Anyway, ultrasound tomorrow so fingers crossed. Thanks x
