Hi to all the girls here!!!

I got the coil removed in August and after reading that it could take up to a year to concieve it felt that it was going to take forever and I had only one tube due to the removal of one after an ectopic pregnancy.
If it helps to put your mind at rest I have just found out this morning that im pregnant and it only took a few months.I did take agnus castus and dong quai for three months and I took ovulex for the past month. Hope this help!! And goodluck to all!!

congratulations scooby
i was looking at your posts as although i dont have the same problem as you i feel im slightly less likely due to having one ovary!
so glad you got what you wanted and so soon
heres hoping everyone else gets their + soon (although im not sure if i want one just yet, maybe feb )

How are you today? Hope everything is well and your putting your feet up. Goodluck for Thursday and keep in touch

congratulations scooby. i found out my due date is june 15th. im 9 weeks prego today. and feeling like crap..lol..funny how we try so hard to get pregnant then when we are its hell for the first couple weeks. wish you all the best of luck. as soon as we pop this one im getting fixed. 4 little ones is enough for me...we even started thinking of names and if we get a girl its either Avery or Caidence..can anyone tell me which they like better? thanks and good luck to you all.

Hi scooby, I'm still feeling sickly today and really tired, thanks for askin!! no chance of me putting my feet up tho with my 3 though.. my middle one has ADHD (may have mentioned before..so sorry) so he is constantly on the go, DH took him out earlier though so got couple of hours of kind of quiet. The girls are in constant need of entertainment,. they are all hyper-active so i guess this one will be aswell! I wouldn't have them any other way!

well i hope you are keeping well,

In April 2005 i had the mirena coil fitted after having my son. At first i had no problems with it, and my periods totally stopped. After a few months, it gave me horrendous stomach cramps to the point where i'd be crying with the pain. After much discussion with my partner we decided to get it removed as we wanted to try for another baby. I had it removed in January this year, and since having it removed my periods are still erratic, and aren't regular. It's been 10 months of trying to conceive now, with no luck!! Every month, i'm very upset when my period arrives. I'm begining to think that the mirena coil has left me infertile. I've been checking my cervical mucuous and taking the ovulation home tests and get a negative result everytime. I'm in termoil at the moment and don't know what to do. My GP says it's normal but everywhere i've been and read everyones periods seems to of turned back to normal after a few month. Is there anyone in my situation?

Hi gennylou!!

The only advice that I can give you is that I~ took Agnus castus and dong quai it regulated my period and I got positive opk's and now I am pregnant and I got mine out in August.Also I bought ovulex and I used it for the month of October. Hope this helps.

Hello All,
I am new here but I have also had the Mirena for 4 years and had it removed on August 29th 2007. We started trying last month and I hope it doesnt take long. I was told by my doctor to wait a couple of months just to let my body return to normal after the removal. I am staying positive .

So i went to my GP and she basically told me that i'm not ovulating and producing eggs. She prescribed me with folic acid to take until i get pregnant, if not i have to go back in spring. I'm really disheartned by this. I only wish i knew before i got my mirena coil fitted what i know now. I would never of had it fitted. I was wondering if anyone knows of anything i can take to help me ovulate?

hi all,

just to let you know i had my coil removed after 8 years (2nd coil in 2004)& never had a period during the 8 years or since having it out.

i had my coil removed on thursday 15 Feb 2007 and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl thursday 8th November 2007 exactly 38 weeks from having it removed.

So dont be worried it will happen everyone

Hi there,

I had my coil taken out in Feb last year, got married in March and in Aug this year we had a girl. It took us a fair few months to fall pregnant but if you think about the chances of the sperm reaching the egg each month I think we did well. I left it to chance to begin with but in the last month looked at my cycle and when i was most likely to fall pregnant and hey presto.

Bumping up regarding a post about pregnancy after ectopic from stace10.. posts are bottom of page 1 and on page 2..
