TTC After a Loss
Talked with the doc about all that spotting
Just got back from the doc and I know some of you wanted to know what he had to say because you too are plagued with spotting. He was concerned that I've had 6-8 days of spotting before AF and thinks it may be due to low progesterone and that I may not be able to sustain a pregnancy on my own.
He wants me to temp this cycle (I thankfully started temping last week) and then he'll see what my temps do post O. He said if there is a gradual decrease then I may start Clomid. 
If my temps stay up and then have the sharp drop-what they are supposed to do- but still have the spotting, well I guess we'll discuss that in a few weeks.
Quick update. Gotta go for now!

This last month it was 8 straight days of pink, brown, and red spotting. Last month it was 6 or 7 days of pink and brown. It was light. The concern is that I'm pretty much bleeding half my cycle.
I really didn't want to have to do any meds, who knows, maybe my temps will prove to be okay. Just have to wait and see. I'm so glad I'm getting this taking care of earlier vs later.
interesting! thanks for giving us an update.
and of course last cycle i had a gradual decrease in my temps and then i stopped temping b/c i knew af was coming.
Keep temping this time! It sounds like the problem is if the progesterone slowly drops off, therefore temp slowly dropping instead of staying high and doing that sharp drop off. Good luck this month! We should keep each other posted!
