Ovulation While Menstruating? Posted: 09-05-03 16:24pm
I had a mirena iud placed june30th. I had
no menstrual cycle for the entire month of
july. I started my period on august 6th.
I began bleeding fairly heavy for about 1
week. After week 2 started and I was
still bleeding I went to the doctor, she
decided to put me on estradiol to stop the
bleeding. I began taking the pills right
away, after the 5th day on the estradiol I
went back to the doctor and she decide to
remove the iud since the bleeding had not
stopped. She removed the iud on thursday,
august 21. I then went to visit my
husband who works out of town for months
at a time, the next day. Well that was
friday and of course we had intercourse
even though I was menstruating. So I am a
little concerned about becoming pregnant.
On sunday which was the 23 I was almost
done bleeding completely. So I guess my
question is can you ovulate while
menstruating? Or shortly after you have
stopped? According to ovulation
calculators counting from august 6, the
first day of my cycle I would have been
ovulating around the 21-23. But does this
not count if you are still bleeding?
