first time ever TTC any advice?

Question

Within the next two days, I'll be trying to get pregnant for the first time ever. I had my mirena removed 5 days ago and I'm taking OTC prenatals. I'm still kinda confused on when the best time is to TTC. I'm also taking progesterone because I have a family history of PCOS. I'm also taking metformin for prediabetes and I'm working out about 3-5 times a week and I've been eating clean for two months now.

I'm looking for any and all respectful advice because I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing and we just moved to a different state and I don't have many mom friends to ask. 27 and looking for motherly advice

Answer

I highly recommend getting an OPK kit (Amazon or most grocery stores) and start testing around 8 days after the start date of your last period. I was on BC for a long time before TTC but my cycle pretty much stayed the same even after getting  off it (28 days). The OPK will give you the confidence (hopefully!) that you have started ovulating again. Then just have sex 4x or so during your fertile window, but definitely on the day you get a positive OPK. Good luck!
