8 months TTC
Hi ladies,
I stopped using birth control at August 2015, since then we TTC.. with no success. ..
Should I be worry? I'm afraid that I have a infertility problem..
I just want to know If 8 months (after birth control that I took for 7 years), it's a normal or should I see a fertillity doctor. .

It's been 11 months for me and all my tests have come back fine. Every woman is different and some take longer than others. Are you tracking your ovulation with either OPKs or temping? If not that can definitely help, especially temping to give you an idea if your ovulating. Also I would recommend getting basic labs done, you don't need to go to a specialist for this just your regular dr or GYN/OB. Hope this helps.

Don't give up hope! I came off bc in august too and kept trying until this last month. We only bd in my fertile window 2 days before I ovulated so I thought I was out but I got my bfp last Wednesday. I just focused on eating better. I did a cleanse last month and took probiotics after that I started drinking the boost breakfast shakes withe real cows milk daily.

Typically if you're under 30 they suggest trying for a year before seeking out help with TTC. If you're over 35 I think they say 6 mos of TTC before checking with dr. If you're in between...split the difference? It doesn't hurt to make an appointment and get everything checked out. If nothing's wrong, then you get some peace of mind. If it is something, then you know what you're up against. Good luck! (I've been TTC since last March and started in January with clomid with my OB/GYN because I wasn't have any periods).
