28 and trying to conceive…HELP!!!?
I am a 28 yr old mom of 2. I have had one ectopic pregnancy (after the other kids) that ended with the Dr. removing one of my tubes. I was on Depo-Provera for 1 year after the tube was removed. I got off, but couldn’t get pregnant for 1.5 yrs, and the menstrual cycle was HELL…severe cramps, horrible mood swings, depression, heavy bleeding, headaches…so I succumbed and tried the pill…it increased my depression, so I went back to Depo to get SOME relief. My periods stopped completely after one month, and I instantly felt like I had made a mistake, because I really do want to get pregnant. I did not get my next shot, and my period still has not come back…My son is 9 and my daughter is 5 and I really don’t want to have such a huge gap between my oldest and my youngest! Please help if you know what I can do to get pregnant. We do NOT have $ for fertility treatments…so other options, please! Thanks!

Em… maybe you could consult your doctor ?
You need to talk to your doctor. There are a couple of different types of medication that he or she could put you on. I no that there is on pill called Clomid and that is really good. There have been a lot of people that have become pregnant after takeing the medication in the first month. You take it between 5-9 days. 5 pills are only 9.00… Baby dust to you.
I think mistake number one was taking the shot AGAIN. The problem with depo is that it can take up to two years to work itself completely out of your system even after only one shot. Right now it’s a waiting game for you. You could try getting on birth control to see if it will bring your periods back and regulate them. However, birth control can cause a lack in sex drive. I would make an appointment with your OB or even with someone at a planned parenthood. Maybe you could get some definate anwsers and try to figure out where to start. PP goes by your income so that could be some help.
