Q: Birth Control And Ovulation

I have been on the pill for about 5 years...before I went on the pill I did not get my period regularly...I went off the pill on July 9th so that my husband and I could try and get pregnant in August....Since I have been off the pill I have not got my period...going back to how I was before going on the pill.

What do I do? We have had unprotected sex since August 9th and I have taken several pregnancy tests and I am not pregnant. What should I do to get pregnant...should I go back on my pill for a month to get my body to ovulate???

HELP!

The pill prevents ovulation so you definitely don't want to do that. If you don't get your period you should call your doctor to schedule an appointment. You can't get pregnant unless you ovulate so you might need some help from your doctor.
