Q: I Think Its a Period? Confused?

Hello everyone,

the past 2 weeks have been frustrating cuz I had a lot of symptoms of pregnancy and took 2 tests and they were neg. Now my period might come every 6 months or 3 months and even sometimes twice a month so I am really irregular. I have been off bcp for a year and ttc for about 6 months.

Anywho usually I know I have my period because of cramps heavy bleeding and whatnot. But 4 days ago I think I got it it was like brown and red then it would be gone then come back, but not heavy enough to wear a reg tampon, sorry for being graphic lol.

I see a gyno in a couple of weeks it takes forever..... Any my doctor has no idea really.

Could this be pregnancy I doubt it..... Anyone that has been pregnant did you have this.

Or do you think this could be an odd period?

Thanks

Hi,
i have been pregnant and I did have a bit of implantation spotting. It was only about 2 hours of spotting red blood and happened on the day that I was expecting my period. If you have taken pregnancy tests and they have been negative, you probably aren't pregnant. Hopefully the ob/gyn will be able to help you get your periods under control and a bit more regular. In the mean time if I were you I would take another pregnancy test ina few days. Getting your periods into a regular pattern will also help you in your ttc. Good luck, I hope everything works out for you!

you should be worried about your abnromal and severely irregular cycles 1st! Your not ovulating and how do you expect to get pregnant? I would 1st correct your cycle issues before anything esle. You may have lots of toher issues preventing you from getting a regular cycle such a pcos, cysts, endo, hormonal imbalance....Regaulr periods indicate regular ovulation ..Drastically irregular periods means most likely no or severely irractic ovulation. Go see a specialist!!! Gl

Thank you for your input I appreciate it. I am trying to get my cycles regular, but my old doctor didnt seem to give a stuff so I am now seeing a very nice female doctor and I will be seeing a gyno soon. Like I said they couldnt see anything on my ultrasound so who knows. Hopefully I will know soon what the next step will be.
