Trying to get pregnant- am I ovulating?

[Harriet123]

Hi all,

I came off the pill two and a half months ago and have had two periods since. Does this mean I am definately ovulating, or is it possible to continue having false bleeds for a while? Before going on the pill my periods used to be quite painful, but neither of my recent periods have been accompanied by any of the usual symptoms.

Cheers

Yes, periods suggest your ovulating. If you want to be sure which day you are ovulating, you can buy those ovulation home-kits from the chemist (they are very similiar to pregnancy tests).
