Hi,

I stopped taking the pill (microgynon) four weeks ago as we’d like to start a family. I told myself we would just ‘see what happens’ over the next few months but naturally I’ve been a lot less cool about it than I thought I would be.

I had my withdrawal bleed, as always, a couple of days after finishing the pack.

I’ve been <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android">tracking ovulation</a> over the last week (probably a waste of time as I could have ovulated, but equally I may not have).

Based on this, should I just take pregnancy tests every couple of weeks until my period arrives? (Or I get a positive result) What were other people’s experiences coming off the pill?

Aware I’m probably just being impatient...
