Periods still erratic 4 months after miscarriage

Cara27 · 2018-02-05 17:34:41

Hi all, I had a miscarriage in mid October, at 6w3d. Passed everything naturally apart from needing a strong course of antibiotics after 4 weeks as they suspected retained products as my HCG was still higher than they expected. I started my first period after a few days of the antibiotics and the tests went negative after that. I knew the first few periods would be erratic, but not this erratic! Basically everything is completely different to normal - Before the miscarriage I would have 25-28 day cycles. Now I've had a 24 day, 33 day, and AF has just arrived today, making my most recent cycle 20 days! - Before, AF always lasted 5-7 days. Now I've been bleeding for about a week and then spotting for another week, apart from last cycle which was only a couple of days of bleeding and a couple of spotting (even though that was the long cycle)! - Before, I always went straight from nothing into full flow, now I'm spotting for a day or two first. And on the short cycles that's given me false hope that it could be an implantation bleed - I'm used to very painful periods (I have endometriosis), but it's been a different type of pain since the miscarriage. The first few days have been like bad indigestion (which was how I felt on the first day of my mc) and then the normal cramps kick in. - I also don't think I'm ovulating (no EWCM since mc and no positive opk). And that's just the main things! Is it still too early to expect things to be settling down a little or should I be seeing someone about this? We were TTC for 4 years before the mc so I'm desperate to get my body back to normal so we can conceive again! Thanks
