I would mark the day of surgery as CD1. Depending on how long it takes for HCG to drop, O may be delayed. I think I O'd within a week of HCG hitting 0. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-about-ectopic-surgery-and-when-i-can-expect-to-bleed#post-2715735 Fri, 24 Mar 2017 09:54:50 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2715735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:heart: thinking of you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-about-ectopic-surgery-and-when-i-can-expect-to-bleed#post-2715732 Fri, 24 Mar 2017 09:47:43 +0000 Anya 2715732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I started bleeding on the 3rd day after surgery.

I think it's common for bleeding to start and stop and involve lots of spotting as HCG drops. Sending lots of :heart: and good wishes for the recovery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-about-ectopic-surgery-and-when-i-can-expect-to-bleed#post-2715646 Fri, 24 Mar 2017 08:32:09 +0000 mrskansas 2715646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@knittylady: I would be prepared for it to start within the next day or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-about-ectopic-surgery-and-when-i-can-expect-to-bleed#post-2715644 Fri, 24 Mar 2017 08:29:58 +0000 knittylady 2715644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskansas: Yes, Wednesday morning was the last dose.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-about-ectopic-surgery-and-when-i-can-expect-to-bleed#post-2715641 Fri, 24 Mar 2017 08:28:26 +0000 mrskansas 2715641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@knittylady: Did you just stop your progesterone on Wednesday?

I'm wondering when I should expect to start bleeding... Also when would I mark this down as a miscarriage in an app like fertility friend? The day I start bleeding, or the day the pregnancy was removed? </p>
