Q: When to Remove My Mirena Coil to Ttc

i am looking to start ttc in january and wondered when i should remove my mirena coil. i don't really want to get pregnant before then as my son starts nursery in jan and i want to make sure he is settled before ttc.

when did you all start taking pre natals before you actually started trying? should i take them now or wait? i don't know whether to while i still have the coil in.

look forward to joining your club again girls!

Is the coil hormonal? Were your cycles regular before the coil?

As for the vitamins. It is 'ideal' to start taking them 3 months before you start ttc. So, 'idealy' you would start taking them some time next month. Wink

Yeah, I thought that might be a problem. lol.

Some doctors recomend discontinuing hormonal birth control 3 months prior to ttc, in order to give your body time to adjust. But, if you don't think it will be a problem, you could wait until January. That way if you did get pregnant right away, it wouldn't be a problem. It's all up to how you think your body will handle everything.

take the vitamin as soon as you are thinking of getting pregnant after taking the merina out it can take up to a year to get pregnant but some sooner. Make sure you take folic acid it is best to be on it before you get pregnant. i was the merina and was told this by my doctor who is an ob/gyn so this is his speciality.
good luck

the vitamins will not hurt you if you take them now but you may want to take a vitamin like women's one a day it has b6 b12 and folic acid .4mg which is what they recomend but you can get extra folic acid from your foods or you can by it over the counter in 1 mg 4 mg tablets.
talk you pharmist and see what they recommend
