The strangest cycle... help!

Hello ladies! New here and hoping one, or some of you have experienced what my cycle has decided to do.

In short, we've been TTC for nearly 3 years so I'd like to think I'm pretty clued up on my cycles. Never had anything off on ovulation, AF sometimes a day late or ending a day early.

Anywho, this cycle AF was 2 days late, and lasted 2 days - just about. Flow wasn't normal by any means - light and light pink, 1/2 small clots passed, nothing major, hardly filled a pad.

Decided to track ovulation early just in case my body has gone mad. Took an opk yesterday, and nearly positive. Tested again today and line is darker. Also EWCM.

I'm so baffled. Usually AF would still be here as I have full 7 day bleeds (joy!) so I wouldn't be tracking yet.

Husband is convinced I'm pregnant due to symptoms he has been picking up... lord help me ha! But BFN yesterday (he still isn't convinced as previous pregnancies 2 needed bloods to confirm)

Anyone else had their cycle decide to have a mad moment?

Thank you xx

Hi @aimsluk,

I have PCOS with average 35 day cycles.This month, my 'period' arrived early (cd29). However, it wasn't characteristic of my usual AF. Usually, I spot for a day, bleed for 4 and then spot for a further 1/2 days. This time it was 3 days of brown spotting followed by a day and a half of bleeding and then a further 3 days of brown spotting.

I have no idea what's going on as that's never happened before. If it was AF, I had lots of EWCM on cd11 which only lasted a day.

I don't even know if I ovulate due to PCOS (getting bloods done next week) but since Monday (cd15), I have been SO tired, felt nauseas off and an and been constipated which is something I don't usually suffer with. I've done countless tests and all come back BFN but I can't explain the weird AF or symptoms.

I really hope you do end up with BFP! Just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in having a weird cycle x

Thank you so much for replying :)

Hopefully your bloods will help confirm. It's awful just not knowing why.

The tiredness has got worse, but it could easily be put to work / travel. So hard not to speculate when there is such a huge change in your cycle

I hope all goes well for you and you get the answers to get you your BFP

Xx
