If I may start with a bit of a "WTF?" post... So, AF finished on Sunday (CD5). Fairly normal in all aspects, compared to recent cycles. Then yesterday (CD8) I started bleeding again! WTF? Seriously? Just, WTF? And since AF had finished, I wasn't wearing any protection, so doubly annoyed because of the washing that had to be done as a result! Still bleeding this morning and cramping too... Again I say, WTF?

Crap Juniper..... I have the same problem, I will stop and then start up again a couple of days later, its annoying
My Acupuncturist is working with me to fix it though at times its hard as you have to see her when AF arrives and half the time she has no appointments available

GL though and please let me know if you find any info on this and a cure x

Thanks PositivelyGTC, it's reassuring to know it's not just me. I actually had acupuncture on Tuesday night (CD7, ie the night before I started bleeding again). I was considering phoning her to ask about it...

Hey Juniper, no idea if this helps or not, buti used to find that if AF had stopped and I did accu within 2 days of it stopping - then it would start again and last another 2 - 3 days! Buti have 8- 10 day periods anyway and generally can't leave the house on day 1 or 2 as I am just bleeding too heavily

Prhaps the accu stimulates the uterus and that causes the bleeding to start again, if there is anything even slightly less? I also find my cycles go haywire after I've been on progesterone support. It would never have been possible for me to do back to back FET's or cycles if I had have needed to... I used progesterone pessaries with my natural bfp's butnprob only cause my OB was also my FS? Fingers crossed the bleeding stops asap!

Xx

Thanks 3rdTL. I almost always have acupuncture within 1-3 days of AF ending and haven't had this happen before, so don't know if that would explain it for me. And I haven't used any progesterone for a year, so it's not that either... I hear you on not leaving the house CD1 or 2 though! Until recently, the first 3 days of my cycle kept me house-bound due to the heaviness. And now that they've gotten less insanely heavy (for the first time in my post-pubescent life!), the pain from my endo is getting worse again and keeping me home anyway...

Juniper I was exactly the same last year and I told my acupuncturist and she done something else with the acupuncture and herbs and it worked and that was the cycle I fell pg
so I would definitely discuss with acupuncturist, Good Luck hope she can stop it cause as soon as I told her and she changed something to help me I have not had another
period then bleeding a few days later xxx

Joski WOO HOO hope the bt is good news and your Oing xxx
