Ladies using the mini pill

[Lulabell]

How long did it take for your body to be back to normal after coming off the mini pill? I had my boy in jan this year and would like to start ttc when he is about three. I have pcos so not sure how that will affect things but interested how the mini pill alone affects you ladies. Thanks in advance.xx

I was on Micronor, stopped at Easter '11 and carried on with condoms until end of June and fell pregnant first try, sadly miscarried but I think it left my system very quickly.

Micronor: BEWARE THIS PILL!

With this pill there can be negative effects. I started this pill in Sept 2012 after I gave birth to my second child. I took it for almost 1 year, the entire time I breastfed him and didn't have a period at all. I then stopped taking the pill in June 2013 because my hubby and I wanted another child. It is now November 2014 and I still haven't been able to concieve. I was told be a nurse that the pill can build up a lining on your uterus and it can take 1-1/2 years to shed it. Because your body doesn't have a period your old stuff doesn't have a place to go and just builds up. And to top it off, the pills made me stop producing eggs. I had to be put on Provera (Not DEPO) so that it would help me produce progesterone and I would start making eggs again. So be wary of this pill. I will never as long as I live take another birth control pill again. This pill messed me up so bad!! It has been about 1-1/2 years since I stopped taking them. I am currently 4 days late with negative tests.

I'm hoping to be pregnant, but not banking on it because Feb 2014 was when I didn't have a period at all and my body had stopped making eggs so I couldn't concieve then. I'm praying that this isn't the case this time. I don't wanna have to go back on pills to make me ovulate and make eggs again.
