very light periods after miscarriage

[sky44]

I had an ERPC (suction removal of pregnancy) 3 months ago for a miscarriage at 9 weeks of twins. Since then each of the 3 periods I have had have been incredibly light the first 2 days (brown discharge), then medium red flow for 2-3 days then light again. Before having my baby in 2009 my periods were really heavy and never started with brown discharge, so this is a real change.

The periods aren't painful, I have had positive ovulation sticks mid cycle and they are about 28 days apart. I wondered about Ashmerman's syndrome, but it is rare, and wondered if what I have experienced is just normal and common or something I should worry about? Have any other women out there have had light periods after an ERPC and what did they do about it e.g. GP?
Thank you in advance

Hi :) Firstly sorry for your loss :(

I had a MMC in october for which I had an erpc.It took months for my periods to be anything like normal. The first proper period I had was in march. Even then it still was very light and hardly any red blood. Before that I saw my Dr about it, and had a scan etc, however bear in mind an ultra sound scan won't show any scarring. I drove myself mad with worry and insisted I was sent for a hysteroscopy too which showed nothing, ecxept my lining was still thin.

I think if you are bleeding some red then that is a good sign. I ate lots of foods to build up my lining as I think I was scrapped very thin. If you pop over to the conception thread there is a thread for ashermans. You can ask some questions there and they will be able to help further xx

Thank you very much for your reply, it as helpful to hear what happened for you!
