I'm 37. I came off the mini pill nearly 4 months ago. Since then, I have had regular periods but they start with 3 days of spotting and I then have 3 days of heavier than usual period. In the first couple of months there was a gap between the spotting and the period of a few days but last month they ran in together.
I am TTC and have been doing ovulation tests. I wasn't getting a positive so last month I did a test every day starting from when my period stopped and I got a peak which lasted 2 days very late in my cycle at around day 20. I have now started spotting again 8 days after that peak.
I suspect my hormones are out of balance but wanted to know if anyone knows what these symptoms might indicate.
I had a AMH test and my score came out very high (not quite high enough for PCOS) so I do not think this is perimenopause.
FYI I was only on the mini pill (desogestrel) for 8 months, before that I had regular periods. I can't prove it but I am pretty sure the pill has caused all this.
