Hi guys! I'm 21 I have pcos. I was currently on birth control for two months end of July through mid august. My gyno said my ovaries needs a break and to help get my period right on track. The last time I had my period was September 16- 20. Its October 15th and nothing. My period has always been irregular. But since I was on the birth control I figured it would at least come this month. With this being my first month off of it. Anyways, I've been TTC for year now and September 20 - 24th was my fertile window. I had intercourse everyone of them days even on after. I know it might sound crazy but since then I've taken 8. Last Sunday was really weird I to a first response and got white line on it then a couple days got another one. Then today I took a ept and it came out faint but see able. Then for just curiosity I took and a first signal and came out negative. I want this so bad! I need some help.

Hello All, Okay, so my period always last 5-6 days, sometimes even spotting on day 7. My period came 3 days early, I had heavy bleeding for 1 day, and spotting on the 2nd day. The last possible conception date was exactly 14 days before I started bleeding. I've never had a 2 day period before. Has this ever happened to anyone else before? If so, were you pregnant? I'm so confused, I already have 3 beautiful children, but I only had spotting with them.
