Thanks rai. xx

Having a sucky day. AF pain is getting worse each cycle and my feet are killing me (was supposed to start seeing the podiatrist today, but had to postpone because of AF). Hobbling about like an 80yo woman and trying to keep up with a 3yo...
[/end whinge]

Hoping the podiatrist can help next week and then I guess it's probably time to see the GYN about my endo again... For some reason the idea of another lap scares me this time (it didn't the last two times), so I've been putting it off, but I can't keep doing this every month...

Juniper - i second Rai's sentiments "wish the stupid witch would stay away for you"

Happy Tuesday all, love and light and LOTS of baby dust

AFM - a little out of sorts which i think is my norm when AF has recently started. the realization that another month has passed with no BFP is always hard but onwards and upwards. My calender this month says “To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping” I am going to keep on stepping until I get my BFP!!!!

That really sucks Juniper, what a pain for you both physically and mentally.....hope it eases for you until you can get to your appt next week

Sorry you are feeling scared about doing another lap, that sucks too! GL with that appointment, I agree you can't keep going on like this best to get it sorted

Wishing your day gets better hun xx

Sorry Ladies, quick question...... AF up until about 9/10 months ago used to last pretty much 4 days each cycle however in the last 9 or so months that has changed to 2 days i spot for a couple of days prior and a day after the 2 days of AF

It worries me that its changed, I have asked my FS and he reckons my bloods are perfect when i do a stimulated cycle so my hormones are all doing what they are supposed to and he said that a 2 day period is normal. I am 37 so maybe that's a factor too

Has this happened to any of you with AF as you have got older? or has it happened at some point in your cycle when you were perhaps younger? just trying to work it out, it likely doesn't mean much and I guess I should just go with what FS is saying

I was told that i can expect to start menopause at 45 years of age great!!

Your opinions on this would be appreciated, thanks!

Thanks Positively. xx I'll be interested to hear if you get another explanation for the AF change. Mine has gotten lighter and shorter over the last 8 months or so (from 5 days down to 3-4 and big decrease in heaviness). I'd love to hear an explanation that doesn't include perimenopause (my current theory for me because my AMH is very low and my last AFC was only 2)...
