It's certainly possible to be hormonal. FSH and LH blood test may be helpful. Regualr periods are very reassuring however. With 2 years of infertility (is it 2 years of infertility or just 2 years off the pill?) it may be time to see an infertility specialist.

Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
