I got the results of my pregnancy blood test and it was negative the doctor is now saying im suffering secondary infertility but i don't understand how because its not like we have been trying for a baby at all and everything i have found has said secondary infertility can only be diagnosed if you have tried to conceive for 12+ months with no success.My problem is i haven't had a period for 7 months

Thanks i have done alot of HPT'S and i have gotten 5 faint positives and 4 negatives i had an ultrasound today but they couldn't find a pregnancy sac or anything.I have an appointment with my GP tomorrow morning for results i have also been getting pretty bad cramping in my lower abdomen.I should have said i tried the implanon due to no contraceptive pill agreeing with me and i tried alot of different contraceptive pills i'm really worried about what is happening with my body right now because i was also told that fertility should return with in 6wks of having implanon removed and yet it''s been 4 months since having it removed and still no period and i haven't had one since june :(

Hi there,
Most women will begin to ovulate within six weeks of removal. Fertility levels will return to what they were before Implanon insertion. In PCOS there is irregular ovulation. In women who are not planning to conceive oral contraceptive pills which contain a combination of estrogen and progesterone can help in regularizing the periods. Another medication is  Provera .It is an oral medication which is taken for 5 to 10 days and will bring on a period. You may need a blood test prior to beginning this medication to confirm that you are not pregnant. For more queries and assistance visit a gynecologist. Hope it helped.
Best luck and regards!
