When did your period start after miscarriage after FET?

Hi lovely ladies,

I got pregnant after a FET cycle, but 1,5 week ago I had a miscarriage which was confirmed on Wednesday. That day I stopped taking the progesterone and estrogen pills which were supporting the pregnancy. The big MC bleeding stopped after 4-5 days and I continued spotting up until yesterday. But yesterday it seems I got my period. Is that because I stopped estrogen and progesterone a few days before? Or is this not my period but still part of the miscarriage?

When did you have your first period after miscarriage, in particular if you have been taking estrogen and progesterone medications due to FET?

So sorry you going through that, it happened to me recently. From the first day of MC bleed to first day of next period was 34 days. It sounds like your bleed is still part of the MC. When I stopped estrogen and progesterone I started to bleed 3 days later which was the MC which continued for about 5 days. It can take time for the meds to leave you system. In my first MC from a fresh cycle I had to have the medical management pills as I still hadn't started to bleed a week after I stopped progesterone. Again sorry about this, there is another level of shitty about a MC after IVF. It just seems so unfair.
