You could take a prenatal to prepare your body for a baby. Mainly what's important is the folic acid. Being anemic isn't going to affect your fertility. If you were diagnosed with hypothyroidism (an under-active thyroid) then that will affect your fertility.
You didn't get any fertility testing done yet. There's blood tests, a scan, and even a surgical procedure.
Don't fret over the irregular period too much. The ovulation tests will help. I have a friend that conceived with an irregular period and after she had the baby, her periods were normal!

Which i pray to god is true, other than that i seem to be fine.
I am getting the ovulation kit, which seems like a great idea, It just didn’t occur me!
Sageoldguy1465@ I already know what my doctor has to say, but each person has their own personal story to tell, or advice to give! That is why am I here. Asking!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Irregular periods don't mean you're infertile. It means it's going to be harder to pinpoint your ovulation. I would stock up on ovulation tests and test everyday starting after the last day of your period. Which is cycle day 1.
What tests have you already had?
Give it 2 more months and contact your GP.

OP: May I "justify" myself a bit? I made a glib comment about your submittal because it seems clear to me that this is the kind of question that should be discussed between YOU and a OB/Gyn Doctor..... and NOT on/in a public - and, admittedly, an amateur - site such as this.
I hope you do end up with a great handle on your problem, and that all goes well with and for you, in the future...

So who knows, it might go back to normal. If everything is still like this in a few months, I will speak to my g’p.an Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it, and a happy new year to all, (in advance)Thanks again.

No. Your cycle can range anywhere from 28-32 days and still be normal.
Not having a period for two months, can mean you're not ovulating. It can also be a sign of PCOS. Polycystic ovarian syndrome. Basically having more cysts than normal on your ovaries, thus causing potential infertility. Symptoms include excess facial hair, adult acne, overweight and trouble shifting the pounds, skipping periods, or not having one for months.
How long have you been trying to conceive? After 12 months, you can ask your GP to refer you to a fertility specialist for thorough testing.

When I was in my early twenties my monthly cycle was absolutely wonky lol and I now have family of three, two girls and one boy.. I'm nearing forty haha
So I agree with honey pie, get the ovulation kit, and have a word with your gp if your still worried..
Try not to worry ( know that's hard) relax and enjoy christmas who knows you may get a bigger surprise 9months later than you think.. If that's what your wanting...
Take care

I would talk to your doctor and maybe try a ovulation kit. The ovulation is more important then the frequency of your periods.
And if you are trying to get pregnant don't forget that 12 months may SEEM long but is the average most couples take before getting tested for infertility.
