Spotting Pre-O

Ladies, anyone else ever have spotting a few days before they ovulate?  It's happened to me now for four cycles, along with some cramping.  My doctor (former) said that it could just be a drop in estrogen and brushed it off...but I'm skeptical.  It's only happened the last four times out of 15 cycles.

I'm not too concerned, but do wonder what it is.

  • Yep!

    I'm rusty on all the details from TCOYF but looking back through my cycles, I spotted pre-O almost every time.

    ETA - and by "pre-O", I mean like 5-7 days prior.

  • Ever since I had Evan, I have spotting right around ovulation for about 2 days or so.  I've been told it's an indicator of a strong ovulation...or it could be related to the changing hormones as you're about to ovulate.

    Oooooo, I like this.  I'm saying it's because I'm a strong ovulator...makes me sound super fertile (which I'm pretty sure isn't true...cycle 15, ah-hem).  Still, I love it.

    Thanks, ladies!  Lauren, I need to read that darn book already.
