I had a d&c in mid-January. Since then my cycles have been 33, 37,34,31 days and currently on CD33 and no AF yet. i always used to be 30days. Always.
I dont understand how a m/c or d&c could cause so much havoc with my body, even now almost 6months later. Ive been given a referral to ObGyn but cant get in anytime soon.
Should I ask GP for a scan at radiology? And BT to check thyroid or prog levels or something? Anytime in my cycle or is there a 'best' time to get these things done?
Last HPT I took was 2 days ago and of course it was a BFN. I just dont understand what could be wrong. How do they fix things if its your hormones playing up?
We're going around Oz for 6months, we leave at end of July, so I dont want to have to wait til we get back to try and fix this! I really want my DD to have a sibling very soon....she's getting older and I feel bad that I cant give her one...
I don't have a lot of information about this stuff, but wanted to reply anyway.
All those ideas sound reasonable. I would definitely be pushing for some tests if your cycle is still so messed up. Sorry about your mc. Come and join us in the ttc aftter mc or loss thread. The girls there are lovely, and a couple of them have had the same difficulty you're experiencing. Maybe they can make some suggestions?
Don't feel bad that your body isn't doing what you want it to. Unfortunately our bodies don't run to our timetable, and don't care what we've got planned. You're doing the best you can, and you will provide a sibling for your DD, just maybe a bit later than you hoped. I know that doesn't help at all, but it's the truth.
Sorry to hear about ur m/c
I just wanted to say as annoying it is for u to be having longer cycles.. I only just got my first af since I had a m/c in feb, so look on the bright side.. atleast ur body knows what its doing.. its just doing it a little late!
And u wld most like be o'ing every month since you are getting af so theres no reason why u shldnt be able to conceive now..?? Have u tried using opks to try and pinpoint O day so u can go extra hard bding on those fertile days??
I dont think blood tests etc will do much, i think the gyno will be happy that ur getting af on a pretty regular basis and your progesterone levels will most likely be alright i think.
What i can recommend tho is go to a health store and buy some Maca.. its a natural powder that helps to balance ur hormones.. if your body is lacking progesterone it boosts it up etc. I have heard a lot of stories from ladies that have had very irregular cycles after m/c and it has helped to make them 28 day cycles again. Worth a try!! I was on about 3 tsps a day a month ago when I was trying to make af come.. it worked!
Good luck x
I ended up buying some OPKs and a thermometer so I could track my cycles a bit better. Took my temp straightaway, even though I know taking it at the end of a cycle doesnt tell you anything! But after 3 days of my temp getting gradually higher, I POAS on CD34 and it was a BFP!!! I'm still in so much shock, I cant believe my body did the right thing in the end anyway! Ive been to GP and had it confirmed by BT as well.
I did see a Naturopath 2 months ago and was given Inositol powder to help regulate and make me O. So taking that for 2 cycles obviously helped, even if it didnt make my cycle regular. I did also take Chaste tree (vitex) drops for the first month too.
I just wanted to give hope to anyone that ever reads this. I'm crossing everything ive got for a sticky, healthy bub. I'm having an early scan next Friday to check that things are going ok.
Irregular AF since m/c 6mths ago - whats wrong?
