Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello I need some questions answered. I have been on birth control for about a year and I stopped it in January. I never had a period throughout the whole year due to birth control. So now I am trying to get pregnant but I want to know if it s even possible for me when I didn t have a period and I have been trying since January and I haven t gotten pregnant. I just got what I think is my period 2 days ago and now its gone. I wanted to know if I can still get pregnant this month or if I even ovulated .
Yes, it is very much possible to ovulate and get pregnant without your periods. This is most likely the case with women who face the problem of irregular periods.
It is important to understand that ovulation is important for getting pregnant and if you have your periods regularly, then you are ovulating regularly too, which means you can get pregnant.
However, women who have irregular periods may not have their periods regularly, but they are ovulating, which means they can get pregnant even if they do not have their period.
So if you are wondering can pregnancy occur without menstruation, the answer is yes it can occur.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Prabhash Verma,
General & Family Physician
