i had a d&c on 2/2/01. i had no bleeding afterwords and the first menstral cycle i got after that was i day short of 6 weeks post. the next one i got was 16 days late. and right now i am 2 days late. this is the third period after the surgery and it is still not right. i have heard about going on the pill or progesterone to regulate my period again, but i want to get pregnant asap again and i dont know if i should regulate my period and then try or try anyway. let me know if you get any advice that may help me too. thanks
