Periods and confusion after 14 week miscarriage

Hi all,
I really hope someone can help. I'm a bit embarrassed that I don't know what my own body is doing but my head is wrecked from all the googling.

My pregnancy ended on October 31st - I was 14 weeks exactly.

I had bleeding on and off then for two weeks. Very heavy at first and then almost nothing.
I had a bit of pain around 2 weeks after and when that didn't go away my consultant scanned me on the 18th of November and said one of the ovaries looked like it was ovulating again. I don't know if it had already ovulated or if it was just starting. We are TTC again but obviously it's pretty impossible if I don't know when I am ovulating.

Does anyone have any experience of when their periods returned after a 14 week miscarriage. All the data I can see is for 1st trimester mc OR late in second or third. As i'm on the cusp i'm not really sure how long it would have taken for my hcg to drop again. I did a low sensitivity pregnancy test on the 18th and it was negative.

thanks in advance xx

My hcg took almost 4 weeks to drop enough to give a negative test after a loss in the 1st half of the 2nd trimester. My next period was about 3 weeks after that. That period was light but the 2nd one afterwards was really heavy. Waiting to see what happens next...

I had a negative pregnancy at my GP on Wednesday I feel like I might be ovulating already but it seems very soon
