@miscarriage39
I would phone bck tomorrow and demand a doc to phone you and tell them they can't leave u to stress for the nxt 3 weeks 💚

Sorry you are experiencing the spotting Annny27. I wonder why so many of us only experience it after miscarriage? Great news that you progesterone levels are as expected.

Oh babyghirl, I hope they get sorted soon. It’s good that your GP is checking you for so many things, albeit after such a long time.

I got a text from my surgery today asking me to book an appointment to discuss my blood tests (taken in Tuesday). I rang straight back and have been offered an appointment three weeks tomorrow! Apparently it’s the first available! I asked the receptionist if she could tel me why they needed to speak to me, and she just said it’ll be something out of kilter, but nothing serious! I’m now worrying, because so many things may not be serious but could be affecting my cycle/ chances if conceiving. It took three weeks to get a blood test, so that’ll be six weeks from when I spoke to the GP! Sorry for the rant.

@nuggetlover27
We r all wondering how u r doing 💚

kiwi17 · 08/07/2021 18:52

Oh ok @Annny27 that sucks :( hope you get your surgery soon 🤞

Babyghirl · 08/07/2021 14:14

@Annny27
Keep phoning the waiting list office again act stupid I kept doing this for the fertility clinic and I phoned one Monday and they told me they could offer me an app for the Wed so worth a try, yea had it repeated it was 30 the second time so to me I say that's still on the low side but I'm no doc lol that's what makes me think my progesterone when pregnant is low, might as the consultant from the rmc nxt time I'm talking can I have it for a few months for after ovulation c what he says 💚

@kiwi17 they think I have endometriosis which can cause spotting (had many ultrasounds bu only a specialist consultant spotted the endo as it's hard to diagnose!) And I am on waiting list for surgery

Argh @Annny27 mine is the same I never spotted pre mc. That's so frustrating- hopefully they'll have some other suggestions of what is causing the spotting? Have you had the internal exam/uss?

Oh no! @babyghirl hopefully they figure it out soon and can get your treatment and stuff.

10/11dpo and been spotting since 7/8dpo 🙄....earliest I have ever spotted. Blooming sick of it. Will see what my progesterone blood test comes back like but i imagine its low even though last time it was fine. I think mine fluctuates each month

Babyghirl · 08/07/2021 10:31

Well I'm nw to be tested for diabetes matches in with my symptoms of thirsty tired and utis so we will see how that goes lol might aswell rub me out and draw me again 💚

kiwi17 · 08/07/2021 09:20

@SLCxxx yes think I may have to opk this month especially as I've been spotting at 9/10dpo so it's a small window to get them done. Nope not been referred to uss scan yet but wondering if they wouldn't have noticed something was wrong when they scanned me after the mc? She said ovaries etc looked fine and healthy but maybe they'd look more closely. Just thankful they're taking me seriously and not making me wait til it's been a full year! How are you getting on??

KJW00 · 08/07/2021 09:01

@Babyghirl thank you. I will give them a call.
I find it strange as my scan on 23rd showed I had passed everything and only a bit of blood was left to come out 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Babyghirl no it's not heavy at the moment. I will give them a call and see what they say. I just don't like to call them because they just seem to fob me off a lot.

Babyghirl · 08/07/2021 08:48

@KJW00
Oh you do be I know the feeling is it a heavy flow, I would phone doc and tell them your bleeding has started again I have read on different threads people getting nagitive test but still got some retaining stuff left in urters hence the bleeding or phone epu and c what they say 💚

KJW00 · 08/07/2021 08:34

@Babyghirl ah ok! maybe it's a drop in my hormones causing a withdrawal bleed then.

Bloody fed up of the sight of blood now Angry

Babyghirl · 08/07/2021 08:30

@KJW00
Won't be your period they say if you bleed before 20 days after the bleeding stopping its nt your period 💚

SLCxxx · 08/07/2021 07:38

@kiwi17 glad they are doing your bloods this month, if you have irregular cycles then you might wanna OPK and do the “21” day bloods 7DPO if it’s not exactly day 21. The swabs aren’t nice 🙈 but routine for fertility investigation, lol. Is she referring you for USS too? If everything comes back normal then she should refer you for further investigation with your local fertility team, that’s what my GP said to me anyway, hope it’s the same with you. Good luck with everything 🤞🏻🤞🏻
