Just wondered if anyone could advise or reassure me as I don’t understand what is going with my body ATM…
I have had a D&C back in March following a miscarriage that was spotted through an early scan at 9 weeks and had the usual post op bleeding. I then have had a first period which was normal, however, this month, I have had a second period that lasted maybe slightly longer than normal then stopped as I would expect after just over a week. Three or four days later, I started spotting again and have now got what looks like another period…I am only on CD 13… So I really don’t know what is happening as this never happened before.
Could it be that my cycles need time to readjust after the D& C or should I worry it is not normal?
I have had a D&C before and this didn’t happen then…
I have normally irregular periods averaging 33 days.
Would this be the same period being unusually long or another period???
I would love to hear if someone has heard of this before or experienced this as I don’t know what to think!?
Just saw your post, and I can’t not reply to you. I’m sorry things aren’t seeming simple for you after your d&c. I have to say I have been thinking about you and hope you are ok.
I have experienced bleeding outside of a period, but never experienced a d&c so can not really comment about that. I know hormonal things can cause it, but the other reason I had you may not want to know, and that was when I had my EP. I am not saying that would be the cause but it would be good to cancel it out with our history’s.
If I were you I would go to the gp or ring your consultant to ask their opinion on it, as they would have more facts. I think any advice people would give here would not be taking all your history in to consideration, that it would be worth getting an expert opinion.
Sending you massive hugs, and hope it resolves it self soon and get back to normal for you.
Thank you for taking the time to read and reply to my post. I still don’t know what to think, still bleeding, moderately but still there. I know you mention it would be advisable to rule out another ep, but I don’t think it can be since I have had a period when it was due to happen and it has been too short a time since then… But I am going to see if I am still bleeding tomorrow and ring the GP, he might be able to shed some light on this. Just hoping it is just an hormonal imbalance following the D&C. I have heard of cycles taking time to readjust after miscarriages…
Wish things were more straightforward :lol:
How are you doing yourself? Hope everything is going fantastic for you!
Well it has now finally stopped! I think it stopped yesterday evening… Fingers crossed that’s it, I’ll wait and see but if it happens again I will definitely see the GP…
Kitty mae is getting bigger and funnier, she loves Mr Tumble and Peppa Pig! Yes she will be 2 next month, unbelievable how quickly they grow! How is little Benjamin doing?
I would go to gp, I know you feel like its wasting their time, but I think its important to check up on it. Although your most likely not, i would do a pregnancy test just to rule it out before you go. It would be good to get explanation for it.
Ah bless kittymae , growing up so fast. Benjamin is good thanks, he is getting bigger etc, starting to talk more which is cute. We tried getting him in a bed, which was great for the first week, then chaos! He still isn’t in a good routine, just fell asleep in the car, so no afternoon nap for him (or me!). Night times are getting better, but day time is very hit or miss. He doesn’t want to miss anything!xx
The bleeding pretty much stopped on Monday and nothing since then… I will obviously monitor what’s going on with my cycles and if things are still weird or unusual for me I will then head straight to the GP. I didn’t feel I needed to go just yet until I saw a sort of pattern or lack of it in my cycles…
Thank you for your replies and suggestions mimis, it is very much appreciated
