I was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy in the beginning of July and had to have my right tube removed. I got my first period back 5 weeks later. I think I am ovulating at the moment (I did an at home ovulation test + that would have been the case in my cycle before the ectopic) and I have been having some light spotting. It was more visible after having sex with my partner. Is this normal? Has anyone had anything similar?
I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy loss,
As I am not medical trained, I would suggest discussing these symptoms with your doctor or GP. Whilst I do not wish to alarm you, spotting after sex and in between periods is not normal and should always be investigated.
Sending much love,
