Hi my name is Samantha and I wanted to introduce myself.

I am 25, have currently lost 80 pounds and yet still NO period. I literally have not had a period in about 2-3 years and when I did have a period I was on birth control. About 5 years ago saw my OB to find out was wrong, I ended up having to have a D&C to remove the thick uterine lining that had developed and to remove some uterine polyps. After that I went on birth control to regulate my periods. I was stupid and stopped seeing my OB, which means no prescriptions, which means no period.

This also means that although I haven't been actively trying to get pregnant, I also haven't done anything to prevent pregnancy for 3 years and yet still no pregnancy which is really discouraging.

I thought the majority of my issues were weight related and I really wanted to have a family so I started this journey. Now losing 80 pounds and yet still not getting my period, is really frustrating to me. I'm going to see my OB and I hope she is able to help, because I have always wanted a family. I feel God has called me to be a mother. I have mixed feelings to, I want to get to my goal weight before I get pregnant, but I would love to find out that I am pregnant as well

What is also really frustrating, is my sister who "messed up" and didn't use protection once just found out she is pregnant, even though she was 5 months along until she "noticed" something was different! grrrr

I love reading all of your stories and it keeps me motivated to keep trying. Thank you for reading mine.
