No periods after 4 months of going off the pill, all tests have come back normal...!

[Kerryn1]

Hi Glenn,
I have been off the pill (Norimin) for 4 and a half months and am still yet to have a period, this is a little concerning for me as my husband and I would like to try for another baby.

We have a 2 and a half year old healthy boy and had not had any issues coming off the pill with him and periods returned straight away, within 5 months of trying I was pregnant with him.

I have had all the necessary tests done by my Dr and they have all come back normal, she has referred me to a fertility specialist which I am reluctant to go too although very eager to find out what is going on, I am getting period like pains every day or so but no menstration as yet.

What would you suggest I do, I hear Vitex can kick start your reproductive system?

Is this something I should try as an alternative or do you recommend me to see a fertility specialist.

I am 33 years old, with no medical history, and am healthy, but very frustrated to what seems like a waiting game!

Regards

K

Hi K
I would see the specialist to get basic tests done as it may be something as simple as PCO preventing the periods. He or she will be well equiped for treating you as well. Youre young and will do fine. Don't panick. have you done a pregnancy test (sorry to be insulting but we always get back to basics!) Good Luck Dr Glenn Sterling
