Go back: I'd ask for an ultrasound. Call your OB to ask if you could double up on the pills for a few days (but this has risks-for bloodclots), it is important to find out if you have polyps, fibroids and how thick the lining of your uterus is. A laparoscopy is the golden standard to find out if you have endometriosis. If you have a hard time getting pregnant that may be a good idea.
