Trying To Conceive. Irregular Periods. What To Do?

Hi Doctor, I have ben having irregular menstrual circle and was prescribed yasmin pills that helps me to have normal menstrual circle but the pill also works as birth control pills. Now I stopped taking the pills because I want a baby with my partner but for two months now I haven't seen my period and I can't ovulate, at first I thought I was pregnant until I did series of test's that shows i'm not pregnant. Please I need advise because I have visited my doctor and he prescribed folic acid for me and it's not helping me because he don't know why I have irregular menstrual cirlce that comes sometimes once in two months or once in three months.. I need help!

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
It is normal not have periods for 2-3 months after stopping taking birth control pills. This is post pill amenorrhea. You need to wait for a few months for your periods to get regularized.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
