Mess up cycles after mc

Hi, I had a mc in late Jan this year. Before I conceived I was on a (more of less) 29 day cycle. Since the MC my cycles have been 34 days, 32 days and 34 days (and counting). I still haven't come on this month. I've taken several negative tests, so unless I'm one of the 1% , I think know I'm not pregnancy although in my ttc brain I'm still hopeful.

Has anyone else who has suffered a miscarriage had unusually longer cycles for several cycles afterwards? I did expect the first month after my MC to be slightly longer (after seeing that this is common) - but not for two more. Does this mean I've been 'reset' to longer cycles now?

After both my losses it took a long time for my body to get back to normal.

Dd2 it took a good 6 months and then I got a diagnosis of endometriosis. I'm 7 weeks on from loosing ds and while in not tracking my cycles I had mid cycle bleeding, short periods etc. Again it might be the endo although I have little pain.

I think it depends how far you were when you had you mc but it can take a while. Plus stress will effect your cycle (annoyingly!)

Thanks KittyandTeal, I'm so sorry for your losses Flowers I hope you are

I was 8 weeks and my MC happened so much in sync with my periods (at 29 day cycles) that ovia actually filled in the missing one when I started logging again! Still no af yet, and that means that my window last month was completely wrong and our stratigy of dtd every 2 days probably wouldn't have worked Confused.
I haven't had short periods or anything else, just longer cycles (35 days and counting)
I think I'm going to have to invest in some opks for next month !

Just looked back at this! Meant to say hope you are ok (obviously I was up way too early!)
