Me and my partner have been TTC since October and still no luck but the last two month i have had really light periods, to the point i haven't needed a pad. This months started really dark almost brown/black, anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Hey @mom121 I have been trying for 8 months my last 2 periods were very light too!! Again horrible dark sticky like blood and could get away with just using pantyliners. I have low progesterone levels which means can cause my lining the be very thin therefore, light periods. How many days do you get from ovulation to period?

@Beau20 heey my periods have just started to regulate with coming off the pill so not 100% sure when im ovulating but im guessing im 2/2.5 weeks after ovulation to period

You'll maybe get a better idea if/when you start tracking things. It's likely just down to hormones regulating. Mine are still trying to regulate 8 months on!

@Beau20 i fell pregnant on the pill with my first so didnt think it would be this hard to conceive😩 my daughter is 3 now! I have been tracking everything and my last period was the 29th and this one landed 29th also so im hoping im now regulated 🤞
