Can I......

hooligans4hooligans4 member
in TTC after 35
Scream and cry and punch something.
I woke up bleeding. It's CD15 for gods sake!!!!!
I can't take this. Last month was a 17 day cycle, before that was 30,21,36,23.
I feel like I'm on a cycle roller coaster.
I am just frustrated
And sad
And worried
And mad!!!!!

    Can I join you? AF in full effect today. I totally lost it this morning. As much as I tried not to get my hopes up too much, I really thought this might be it. Called the Dr's to let him know I'm back to square one. They asked if I wanted to start trying again right away or rest for this cycle. At first I said right away but then was confused. Have an appointment this Friday...I want to be strong and resilient but the whole process is so draining... emotionally, physically and financially. Makes me wonder if I'll ever get a BFP...

    @kindershlitz I can't remember when I have my annual. I wrote on my calendar to call in April to make apt. So I must me due for end of April or beginning of May. They are strict with the year to the day time frame.
    It can't come soon enough. I've been looking up things online (I know I shouldn't but I did) and it keeps coming back to early menopause.
    I'm going to have to get my AMH checked right.
    Don't know how else they determine if you are going through menopause.
    I just don't get how I can go from having two really long cycles to two really short ones. Why can't my body just get to a happy medium and have 25 day cycles.

    @hooligans4, I'm sorry, I jumped on ur post to rant about my own issues. I was so frustrated I didn't realize it until now. Didn't mean to be so insensitive.
