A 28 day cycle from start of miscarriage. So that seems ok even though I ovulated late-ish. At least my LP was 10 days and not less. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2055996 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 14:39:07 +0000 travellingbee 2055996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chaosmaven: thanks. I'll look into that. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2055988 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 14:32:48 +0000 Chaosmaven 2055988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: This is going to sound like a strange suggestion, but I've been doing some reading on spotting/progesterone/AF, and there are a lot of accounts of women bringing on AF early or shortening it via orgasm. If you are spotting, your progesterone levels may be low and since progesterone is what keeps the uterus from contracting, an orgasm could cause contractions that start AF. I suspect I actually caused my 10 day LP to be 9 days last cycle this way by accident.</p> <p>I'm on my 3rd cycle post m/c, and my cycles are still not back to normal. My doctor says it can take a while for your body to rebalance your hormones. Hopefully you will get some answers soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2055924 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 14:08:52 +0000 travellingbee 2055924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, I'm still just spotting. No sign of actual AF yet, so I guess that is good. I'm on cd28 but 10DPO, I think. I'm curious about when this AF will start because I am a bit worried that it will negatively affect the timing of our first cycle starting to TTC again. (not this next cycle but the one after...)Right now, it looks like I will be getting AF again, right when we are leaving for our vacation which, depending on the exact timing, would affect whether or not we will be able to start interventions. Grrr... It's all so frustrating! I this point, it would be better if I started today and bump it all up a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2054879 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 21:26:46 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2054879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DesertDreams88: I didn't see my gynecologist. I got pregnant through IVF. When it was time for me to have another transfer I was put on birth control the month before so my cycle length didn't matter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2054729 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 20:09:38 +0000 DesertDreams88 2054729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I mc 6-8 weeks, bc it was an incomplete miscarriage so it was really drawn out. It took me 46 days to get AF back and that cycle (the one started by AF) has been 44 days. My doctor said that if things arent back to being balanced by the end of my third cycle, he wants me to call, and that sounds similar to the guideline from @marym's doctor. </p> <p>@LEIALOU: you mentioned your cycles were getting longer and longer, and I'm worried that's what's happening with mine. What did your OBGYN do to help? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2052367 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 13:36:45 +0000 MaryM 2052367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: this line stuck out to me "so I didn't know what to expect." I think I felt very much the same way</p> <p>but I think the main thing I learned, was not to "expect" anything...that there was no such thing as normal. I read so much online about people having worse periods than usual, and mine was WAY lighter. </p> <p>I miscarried at about the same place as you (I was at 7 weeks, but the sac measured smaller). I Oed as soon as my HCG hit 0. My LP was 11 days (it's usually 12 or 13). </p> <p>the next two months I had a lot of spotting (especially that third month) and was WAY more hormonal (or who knows, maybe just emotional?) than usual.</p> <p>I think even though our bodies might start acting more like normal, that it can take a while for the hormones to level out. I asked my doctor about the month I spotted nearly the entire cycle, and he said lets wait a month or two, and sure enough, it sorted itself out. </p> <p>((HUGS)) to you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2052343 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 13:28:32 +0000 auggiefrog 2052343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: This is my first cycle since my MC cycle. AF lasted a little longer, but I mostly spotted or had more light days. I O'd at my normal day, and I think I'm at 5DPO with no signs of AF (knock on wood). My temps were a little more inconsistent then they have been, but they haven't been too off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051683 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 07:54:05 +0000 travellingbee 2051683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@auggiefrog: oh that sounds like mine! How long until things got back to normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051658 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 07:31:09 +0000 ValentineMommy 2051658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Took almost 8 weeks for me after my D&amp;E, and the first cycle was definitely NOT normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051572 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 00:05:04 +0000 simplyfelicity 2051572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my D&amp;C, it took 6 weeks or so for AF to return. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051564 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 23:23:37 +0000 auggiefrog 2051564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my MC my temps were all over the place. I was super hesitant about using OPK's, but I finally caved and I think I got the very end of my LH surge. AF came about 5 or 6 days later. My cycle ended up being the same length as my normal cycle, but I O'd a lot later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051389 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 20:11:10 +0000 FannyMae 2051389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: my cycle is being funny too. Post d&amp;c I bled for 2 weeks, then had a week without bleeding, then AF (I think) started at 31 days (if I count d&amp;c as Day 1). I'm still spotting lightly at day 16 into this new cycle even though I had High and then Peak on the OPK. wiiiiierd. I'm seeing my OB in 2 weeks for check up so I guess I'll find out whats going on then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051377 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 19:58:49 +0000 travellingbee 2051377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah I expected this to be a longer than normal cycle, but it seems like it may be shorter! :/ guess you just can't know what to expect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051363 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 19:54:44 +0000 blackbird 2051363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine took about 7-8 weeks and I had a lot of spotting issues because I actually stopped ovulating. I needed clomid to get bavk on track </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051358 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 19:50:19 +0000 Torchwood 2051358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my m/c at 9.5 weeks, it took around 5 weeks to get AF back. I don't know when I ovulated. After that I went back to 28 days like before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051357 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 19:49:31 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2051357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After my loss it took 6 weeks for AF to come back. Then my cycles never went back to what they were before. They kept getting longer and longer. It could just take a while for your body to get back to normal unfortunately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cycle-after-miscarriage#post-2051348 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 19:36:12 +0000 travellingbee 2051348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started my miscarriage (At almost 7 weeks) 25 days ago. I'm pretty sure I ovulated since then because of positive OPKs at cd16 and 17. But I started spotting today. At 7 DPO. We've been avoiding so I'm not pregnant. Just not sure if this is normal. Will it take a while for my cycles to get back on track? After my chemical, I went right back to normal, so I didn't know what to expect. I've also had a bad skin breakout since about a week ago and been emotional. Like pmsy almost since I thought I ovulated. Thanks! </p>
