<s>[INST] i have come off the pill after being on it for 8 years. i have been off it now for about 8 weeks because my partner and i are wanting a baby but i have still not had a period but i have never had regular periods but i was wondering can you still ovulate without a period? [/INST] Hi, I think you can ovulate without periods but it is rare. So, you will need some medicines for ovulation.  You can take some medicines like clomiphene for the growth of your follicles and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when your follicles is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles.  Be in contact with your partner 2 to 3 days after injection.  Take progesterone for next 2 weeks.  Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that.  Hope I have answered your question.
