I had a medically managed miscarriage on 14th Feb! (Great Vday I had - not!).
Positive ovulation sticks on 13th and 14th March.
Brown spotting on 24th March. I was kinda hoping it was implantation bleeding but negative test.
Reading online it seems hopeless and this spotting is my period. It's barely there and mostly only when I wipe. It suggests thin uterine lining.
There's some suggestion of Asherman's Syndrome.
Would I be unreasonable in getting a private scan to check thickness? This is utterly rubbish. I had implantation bleeding during my miscarriage and my one successful pregnancy so I assumed this was it.
I feel devastated. I honestly think a heavy bleed would have been more of a relief.

First period after miscarriage? Why is this happening?

@esb27 I had my surgery the day before you. Did you check to see when you ovulated? It took over 4 weeks for me to ovulate and we TTC straight away. I thought I was getting my period as I was spotting on Monday but did a pregnancy test and it was a faint positive. Bleeding continued and epu have said it's most likely a chemical. I asked about lining etc but she didn't give much just said that surgery doesn't cause further MCs but I'm not convinced as I'm the same worrying about Ashermans.

Update:
Turned into normal bleeding.
- 3 days of brown spotting (not normal for me).
- currently on day 2 of regular red bleeding so far.
- confident it's not Ashermans and think my lining is probably normal thickness.
- still think I want to go for a fertility scan just to check a few things.
- brown bleeding linked to anaemia- did a home test and it says my ferritin is low - not a surprise despite my supplement allegedly giving me 200% RDA.
I'M GRATEFUL FOR ALL YOU GUYS, I HOPE YOU KNOW THIS SUB IS FAB AND DESERVE ALL THE LOVE, FERTILITY AND BABIES POSSIBLE.

@esb27 mines were the same positive even with a faint line on pregnancy test. I ovulated around 2 weeks after a completely negative test. Yes I just really want to he pregnant again but going to skip April and let my body heal. I think I was desperate for a certain age gap for my son but that's not going to happen now.
@Beeches24 glad to hear the bleeding seems to be back to normal. I think Google convinces everyone they have Ashermans but it's not very common so hopefully we're all ok 😊
