Trying to conceive , OPK, ovulation, bleeding

[MCMP13]

Hello, I had a chemical pregnancy last cycle. Started using OPKs after bleeding stopped (bleeding lasted about 5 days) and I used the first day as CD1. I have attached the results from the OPKs. The last time when we were successful the surge was a lot higher at 1.64.

This morning I woke up to blood when I wiped- it wasn't a lot but was there for a few hours. Do you think I have ovulated yet or about to ovulate? Has anyone else had spotting or blood around this time? I'm only on CD 17 and didn't ovulate last time until CD18 but never had blood before. Anyone had any similar experiences or know why I could be bleeding. X

First of all, I'm really sorry for your loss! I hope you're alright!

The cycle after a chemical can be a really messed up one, sometimes it even takes two cycles until they're regular again. How is the bleeding now, did it stop completely?
I'd take your peak at cd15 as your peak, it isn't so far off from your regular peak also, so it makes sense to me. The bleeding though could have many reasons. Could be old blood that came out for example, I heard from some women that experienced that around ovulation. Could also be related to intercourse, could be a small cyst, or could be something else entirely. Did you have any cramps?

I would also agree I think your peak was cycle day 15. How long are your cycles normally? They say the egg is released around 24 hours after a positive ovulation test so your days and symptoms seem to match up well to me. Plus ovulation always varies by a few days month to month if you’re regular.
I get spotting around my ovulation. Usually only for a day or so and only when I wipe. Not every cycle but enough to notice it has happened a fair few times over decades, so yours could very well be that too and it’s some blood making its way out just before/during/after ovulation.

Thank you four your advice, it’s helpful hearing others experiences! The bleeding only lasted a few hours and stopped and I had cramps too. Normally ovulate on CD 19 so on CD17 today and just got another really dark OPK! This chemical has really messed it up haha! Just going to keep bd regularly just in case xs

@MCMP13 fingers crossed for you 🤞

So I had a chemical last cycle too and had brown spotting last week at what I'm pretty sure was ov time. Have never had ovulation bleeding before but I think I did this time.

@Bundaberg84 thank you! X
@CommaStop oh so same situation, fingers crossed for you x
